with a lot of messing around, But they work really good.
Mind you I should tell you this was all fitted to our KE-20 race car, so we had camber and that. But I think the pretty much just went straight on if not he would have taken the whole front rotor set up off the Datsun and replaced it onto the front end.

it depends if you are keeping the KE20 struts or not really...
it also depends what rims you will be running..
some rumours are.
camira vented front discs will bolt to the KE20 hub. have seen this with volvo 4 spots.
honda civic discs, redrilled for KE20 hub pattern.
there are also some others that will slip over the hub and be held on by the rim, ala skyline etc.
grab the DBA catalog, work out what rim size you want, and go from there.
to begin with, you can swap in the KE30/KE70 discs and calipers... caliper pistons are the same size, but the discs are 218mm vs 200mm for the KE15/KE20 discs.
