well, i think you'll find that the KE70 brakes are about the biggest that will fit in 13" wheels (ie the 218mm disc) EXCEPT for the KE/AE70 wagon which had something like 230mm discs? check DBA cat for them.

to get discs that 'just' fit under 14's, i think you'll prolly have to do some machining, but it's not that big an issue really.

if you want to do track work, might be an idea to go one size larger in rims, and stuff the biggest discs you can under 15". increasing disc diamter alone gives you a large increase in braking (the proportion % increase in diameter even..) and it's a win-win....

you'll probably be looking for discs that get clamped between the rim and the hub, rather than bolting up as per original, and caliper brackets will need to be made. vovlo 4-spots are a good caliper and oft underused in favour of shiny ones like 300Z and RX7...

Cya, Stewart
