So I'm getting to the point in the project where brakes might become a necessity.... problem is, not many people have my exact situation at hand.
I'm running the superstrut suspension in the front.... until further notice. Given that, I have all the subrame stuff from the clip, no problem. Bought front shocks, no problem. Bought ss3 twin piston brakes, no problem. came with pads so I can find a matching pad size, no problem. My question comes into play with respect to the rotor (or brake disc whichever you prefer). Does anybody have any idea what rotor is gonna fit off hand? Anyone have superstrut with ss3 brakes? I can't seem to find much of anything with respect to diameter, offset etc etc. I'm hoping the GT rotors fit, but I'm not sure if the offset is right. If not, maybe mr2 turbo rotors? 185 rotors? I could always mix and match, but I'm hoping for some experience and answers if they exist. Thanks in advance to an experienced community...... whom I do no expect to have an answer for me LOL -------------------- ![]() |

they are exactly the same? what makes you think they are any different. 275mm plain and simple
also even forgmann confirmed for us on his fs thread where the ss3 caliper bolted directly onto McPherson suspension no problem. take pic between your mcpherson and superstrut hub like so: I can guarantee they are the same, plus you were the one who provided the pics now that I look at my pm's
