RA6x/MA6x calipers DO NOT fit on an RA23 strut, the bolt spacing is quite different. Have a look at what I did to mount MA61 calipers on my RA23 strut:

Not terribly difficult but some fabrication work is required. Note that the MA61 hub/disc assembly is a direct bolt on.

As for performance, I've given these brakes arseholes and they've never let me down. You'd need to be making some SERIOUS power and racing it on a track before you needed anything better.



SWEET! i read somewhere that ra60/ma61/sa63 etc shared similar springs, inserts and struts, and i wondered if they would fit on my car. I expected to have to make up a custom calliper mount but it looks simple enough. The only thing i am worried about is engineering said piece of metal. Has yours been engineer checked Norbie? Also is it ok to have an extra 18mm of track? in a legal sense?

thanks

Daniel
