akumazedex Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Hi everyone, I'm Doing a s12w/z31 front brake swap. I need a spacer for a late model 260 (10-74)/280z it goes between the hub and rotor. MMS is notoriously hard to get a hold of so im wondering if anyone has some or know where I can get some reliably. Thanks in advance.

akumazedex Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Gotta talk to silvermine and find out the specs before I get them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUNNY Z Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I'm also very curious. I've tried using regular washers (measured with a micrometer) and matched, but it seems they crush differently. Where can you get ~9mm spacer, because my brakes feel quite sketchy (warped rotor feel), and I'd really like to correct it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
