Update on the honda accord rotors. They have a diameter of 282mm, they have the same centering hole diameter as RA23 rotors, and they also have a four bolt hub pattern. AND... Very Happy They have an offset of 47mm. This means that a caliper bracket will be easy(ish) to make! Of course, this may not be necessary if I can track down a set of 5 stud 15x7 +-(buggeredifiknowwhatoffset) longchamp xr4's, and someone crazy enough to import them to Australia. If so, I'll just do the crown hubs/S2K rotors.

EDIT: Another bit of news for the 4 stud front: A number of big diameter calipers are out there with relatively small hub holes. To fit the RA23 hub, the ID has to be <=64mm such that it can slip over or be drilled out. One pair I found were lexus rotors, but they had a thickness of 28mm... Too thick! After a bit more looking, I found something very promising, although availability in Australia (and cost) may be questionable. They are:

Maserati Shamal vented rotors:
-diameter = 300mm
-Thickness = 22mm (maybe too thin?)
-offset = 46mm
-hub hole = 60mm

Also,

RENAULT Alpine A610 3.0i V6 Turbo
-diameter = 300mm
-Thickness = 24mm (1mm less than S2K rotor)
-offset = 43.5mm
-hub hole = 61mm

No chance of finding those rotors in a wreckers though!
