Mal, Have a look at the 10th post (for a full-size filter ) on the Small Oil Filter thread in Tech Tips. A full-size filter can then be mounted upside down in the original location in front of the LH cylinder head. The TRD-1028 with vertical ports is preferable. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TRD...

gtsmrt,

Thanks for that. The Dales/Wilwood kit, whilst excellent, is just too expensive to import to the UK (for me anyway).

I am looking for hard info on wheel/tyre combos (preferably 14 inch) that work with Brembo calipers and do not foul the wheel arches.

Has anybody successfully fitted 14 inch wheels with Brembo calipers?

If so, what offset etc is required to avoid touching front and rear arches?

I am assuming that 15 inch wheels/tyres will cause the above fouling problems on standard arches.
Is that correct?

What is the minimum wheel size for Brembo caliper clearance?

Is any particular offset needed to avoid tyres rubbing on wheel arches front and rear?

Tyre size?

Any further detailed info would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.

I recently came across this article for a rear disc conversion on a Reliant Scimitar, which also uses the Salisbury 4HA axle:

Brad,

You have a PM.

I see that somebody from on here has just bought the AbeBooks UK copy.

Well done.

martin172 (aka scannerman), I suppose this re-raises the issue of Tech Tips. Has there ever been any tech tips in CW about gearboxes re. repairs/improvements etc? See CW 9, pages 19 to 21 for “Let's have a look at the gearbox” written by Bob May, back in the late 70s. There is a very detailed descri...
