Hmm lots more ideas to think about..
<snip>
I'm starting to wonder if give up on using the st141 strut and use RA28 item with a custom plate made up to hold the caliper.
<snip rest>

i think you should use an adaptor plate to correctly position the caliper to suit the Pug (or similar) disk with the ST hub?

The RA23/28/40 hub has the disk much closer to the strut face? (e.g. dist from strut plate to disk mount face is bugger all compared to your ST) (i'll check tomorrow as if i go outside now, the neighbors will ring the cops thinking i'm doing a B&E)

adaptor plate could be on STRUT-side of mount bolts and position the rotor further around disk and have Xmm shims welded to position calipers horizontally away from the disk.

i'll bash a drawing together and post it - but i think you should try to retain as much 'bolt-on' hardware (e.g. oem rotor, hub, steering, strut, caliper mounting-faces) to minimise engineering problems.

we just need is a tame (or blackmailable) CNC operator or competant welder (to build-up the shims) and the adaptor only needs threads cut to attach to the ST mount points?
