  1. I did a Wilwood swap back in the mid 90s using Superlite caliper F&R. I very quickly eliminated the brake booster after flatspotting a second set of race tires. When I put the car back together it will get Dynalites in the rear. Originally I ran a proportioning valve which was fine once setup but I found the rear pads ran cool, hence the desire to educe the size back there. The car now has a triple master setup in it which is much easier to live with. Here is how I mounted the calipers up front, Cut off the upper mount and repositioned it and welded spacers to set the calipers where needed. This fits the common 12 7/8 disc up front nicely. http://www.vermontel.net/~dcma/Stars/Whity%20strut.JPG
  2. Hi Guys, I have not been around here but I have an EVO 8 rack installed under one of my Starions. These pictures were taken 5 years ago. http://www.vermontel.net/~dcma/Stars/Whity%20front1.JPG http://www.vermontel.net/~dcma/Stars/Whity%20rack%20top.JPG http://www.vermontel.net/~dcma/Stars/Whity%20strut.JPG In this last picture you will notice the caliper mounts are a bit different on my car as well. I have been running Wilwood Superlite calipers over 12 7/8 rotors front and 12 3/16 rotors on the rear. This suspension and brakes have been run going on 15 years now. I eliminated the brake booster as well way back then but now have a triple master setup in the car.
  3. Thank you, I am not in a rush so when you get to that part let me know and we can get the price and shipping figured.
  4. I would be interested in the differential, if that is available?
