Vanette rotor PCD

Post by jeremiahnz »

Hi guys,

Can anyone tell me what the PCD is of the actual rotor for an early C120 or C20 Vanette?

I am after a rotor with a 73mm centre bore and a 4x114.3 PCD.

Cheers

Thanks - can you just confirm that the rotor is definitely 114.3, not just the hub on the vanette as I believe the vanette setup is disc behind the hub. I am going to try to use the disc over the hub for my 410.

Cool - I flicked him a message on datsun.co.nz.

If anybody else has a vanette lying around, or can confirm the pcd of the rotor, it would be much appreciated.

In case any one is interested, it looks like they are 95 PCD.

Looking at evo 1-3/vr4 brakes now as they are 114.3 - a bit overkill tho, but they may work

actually, and long as your chosen wheels will still fit over them, you can't have too much brakes. I spent ages with shithouse factory brakes, and upgrading them made it like a new car.

Yeah, I think I'll have to run 15's as a result. Some 14's may still work.

I was probably going to run 15's anyway so it isn't too much of an issue.

Looks like the 280z Master Cylinder is the same bore as the Evo master, and that is a bolt up on the 411 (apart from needing a slightly longer rod)
