You can put em in, mess up the geometry a bit, but get better brakes in the process.

I've had them in my car for over 3 years, but to get them in the steering knuckles were filed out. It's not the proper way to do it and i'll probably get flamed. But I have good brakes, i'd rather be able to stop than to steer into something.

You can fix the camber with a strut bend, though your scrub may or may not be correct. I don't have the knowledge to know if it is, or how it affects things, but it is changed.

You could put the ra60 calipers on the ae86 strut, but if your going to fab a new mounting plate, you'd wanna go for something a bit newer and better than the ra60 caliper. OT i saw 6spot calipers on a c55 or some AMG merc today, sexy!!
