REAR DISC CONVERSION. CALIPERS @ 3 AND 9 OCLOCK

Nate, this is typical for any rear disc conversion... are you showing us different rotors..?

Hey Jason, thanks for all of your help bud, you rock!

I don't think so, according to the autoparts store, those are the same as what you are using. The only difference between my setup and yours will be e30 caliper, bottom mount.

Feedback: brakes worked well on the track! The booster might need some love but the system survived a couple extreme sessions in the advanced and instructor sessions. Made a couple slight tweaks to the CAD based on the this set of brackets. Mainly, the inside of the caliper was just touching the rotor, so I moved that out a few thousandths.

Here is the CAD if anyone would like to duplicate my work. Remember, 6061 at MINIMUM, preferably 7075 aluminum. The forum will not let me upload Solidworks extensions, so you will have to get it here:

Good Luck everyone!

So I'm going to do this I was lucky enough to source every thing but the carrier brackets and pads in one shot so far. I just bought this car and thought I might as well do it, it has the brake power booster and master cylinder out so might as well do it now rather  then have to brake in to the system again down the road. So the bracket drawing doesn't give the height of this bracket meaning from bottom to  the top where the suspension will be welded and bolted on anybody know what it is or should I just measure up from the to above the mount and just use that was going to make the brackets before making the car immobile to reduce how long it's off the wheels all thought  I don't have wheels that will fit over the disc yet either but any day now I'll pull that trigger. Also anybody know where I can get power booster rebuilt?
