    Rear brake discs

    Ive done the galant disc change on the front and im after doing something similar on the rear. Does anyone know if any discs fit machined down hubs so the disc fits on the outside with the existing callipers? Im not looking for bigger really, just ive got 2 hubs that have been machined down and i need to do the rear bearings, so thought while im at it i will see if i can find any discs that will fit on the outside.

    cheers

    I think Greg Downer done a setup for the rear hub using the the same year galant rear rotors with the miata rear barke caliper.

    Here are the pix from that setup.

      brackets can be found over on the yahoo groups for the 323gtx.. I believe Bob is your man with the bracket plan. I have (2) pairs sitting in the back seat of the GT... just need to get around to working on it again.

              Guys...this upgrade does not work on the GT...GTX only. If you have a drum set up on your 323, the best you can do is swap on the Mercury Capri spindle/hub-rotor assembly. No documented upgrades for the GT rear disc brakes( which is the same as the Capri ).
