Question about rear brake rotors

(1/1)

Roadster53:
Hello,

I know that rear disc brakes are not currently INEX legal, but at one point long ago I believe they were.  My Thunder Roadster is setup for SCCA road racing so I do not have to follow the INEX rule book for my class.

Does anyone know the stock application for a rear brake rotor that will fit over the rear axle without modification.  I ordered a set of brakes from Peter D Motorsports but her wants me to send my axles to a machine shop and have them milled down.  I'd rather not do that.

Thanks for any help of info!

Mike

The roadsters are allowed to run disc brakes, with that said there is not an aftermarket rotor that will install directly. The rotors used for the application are a USLC specific made piece...

Putting on the rear disc brakes also require additional changes as well.

I believe Randy sells some of the parts for the rear disc brake set up.
Hawk Machine sells bolt on caliper mounts.
There are a host of companies that sell calipers and rotors over on the Dwarf Car sites. Peter D is a good one to deal with.
Wilwood is the preferred caliper; But if your budget doesn't allow, you could run stock Toyota calipers.

Have to be aware of the rules that you will have to meet to run the SCCA events. Small clubs, like where I live (MT) are a little more open because they want the membership and car counts.

Thanks Randy,

What other additional changes are required?  Can the custom rotors still be obtained from USLC?

Thanks,
Mike

Yes, they have all of the parts required to change over to disc brakes from the rotors to the calipers, brackets & lines.
