Hello All,

Thanks for the advice on the clutch - it looks like it is all sorted now.

Now the next thing.....BRAKES!

I've spotted a Wilwood set-up on here and I am looking to do the same on my Datsun B110 sedan, now I really don't like bothering people on the forum as these days everyone is so so busy and I appreciate that but when I get really stuck I reach out for help.

I spotted your set-up and got in touch with Wilwood directly with the photos that were posted and they have basically identified what you have from the pictures.

They are saying as follows: (Below)

Dave,

Thank you for the inquiry with Wilwood Disc Brakes.

Believe it or not, we actually don’t make any kits or components specifically for the Datsun 1200. It appears some very ingenuitive folks in the Datsun community have figured out that a few of our universal components work on the OE hubs/spindles.

As such, we are more than happy to help, though we don’t know the exact part number of the components being used. If we were to hazard a guess, our 160-3748 rotor may be a candidate:

http://www.wilwood.com/Rotors/RotorProd.aspx?itemno=160-3748

We make the Dynapro single with two different mounting dimensions - 3.25” and 3.75”; do you know which one you require?

3.25” version (1.75” pistons; 0.38” thick rotor):

3.75” version (1.75” pistons; 0.38” thick rotor):
http://www.wilwood.com/Calipers/CaliperProd.aspx?itemno=120-9689

NOW with this comes two questions: (on the above)

1 - will the rotor they recommend be OK for my car? (I'm on 14'' rims)

2 - Which of the caliper versions did was used? (3.25 or 3.75)

3 - How have people found the performance of this set-up with time who have it.

Again all help welcome - I would love to hear from you on this.

Best regards,

Dave.
