rear disk conversion on BG

[bg astina]

Hey, is it possible to do a rear disk conversion on a BG? if it is what car would I have to get hubs etc off?

well all BG astinas here in australia came with disc brakes on the rear (not sure the sedan did)
but judging by your pic you could have a sp (or engine from a sp or bpt)
so it should have them if it is a sp

but if your looking to get them
find a BG that has them or perhaps a BA (might need some work if you go this route)

ba have all different rear arms...best bet is find a BG with the rear disc setup...

I have a the astina BG hatch, and it has drum's on the back, that kind of look like cogs

my silver plate thing under model has this on it E-BG5P

Ah, you've got a 1500 then.

You need the rear setup from something with a BP DOHC 1800 - so a BG Astina GT, basically. I think the Eunos 100 might have had rear discs too.

yea 1500 DOCH 16-Valve 5 speed manual, also sweet I'll ring wreackers and see if they have anything I could cheap

you'll also need the brake fluid lines and the handbrake cable from the donor car.

BA rear brakes will work.

BA rear brakes will work.


arnt the hubs and the arms different???

[project.r.racing]

dunno whether or not the hub are different. the arms are. but they all bolt up the same as eachother. lots of KF/KH/BGs out there with V6 5 stud conversions from BAs. so 4 stud versions should fit all the same.
