ZT-R Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 He just emailed me and said that "The rotor to hub bolt pattern should be 5 X 3.88 inches" for the AZC big brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 That's unfortunate. I think you could still probably make it work. You'd just have to change the hole pattern and play with the thickness of the adapter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooseRocks Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I'm going with you on the T3 hubs. I'm hoping you get to the end on this. It'll definitely save me a bit of noddling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 I thought the T3 hubs had less offset than the azc, but tyler said they will put the wheel in the same place. otherwise i could run more lip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooseRocks Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 From their site (typo and all): "Front and rear mounting faces are in the exact same postion as the factory 240Z so no special offsets are required to run these." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 I want to say the AZC push out 5/8 over stock. Might be worth just swapping over to t3 hubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Got notification that my hubs will be shipping out today or tomorrow, so after I get back from some travel I should be able to do a more accurate test fit next weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 sweeeeet. I have the Apex setup but my brake rotors dont clear, probably gonna have to go to T3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 well i think i got my setup to work so maybe i can stick with it. I guess ill have to have a custom part made though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) I'd like to have a discussion with the engineer at T3. I got my hubs in, printed up an adjusted adapter, and went to test fit. Turns out despite using the stock 300zx rotor bolt pattern, they decided it made sense to use M12 bolts rather than the stock M10. Had they used M10, proven brake swaps like the S12W calipers and 300zx rotors would work great. I'm sure they had their reasons, but man does it seem short-sighted from my end. Tone ring placement is going to change a tiny bit, since the allen head screws are a bit long and sit proud of the adapter, fouling on the back of the wheel studs. I went thicker on the adapter this time so I could countersink the screws, but if you're using the adapter over the top of 300ZX style rotors the measurement in the drawing I posted before would work great. For the sensor, there should be plenty of room in the space between the strut and forward-most caliper ear, as well as all along the forward edge of the spindle. I'm hoping I can integrate a mount for it into the caliper adapter. If that doesn't work, I'll use the dust shield holes tapped all the way through to bolt it on. Bonus shot of the slip over rotor brake setup I'm working on. Edited January 1, 2020 by calZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadzsun Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Looking good! There's not a lot of room to get a ring & sensor in there. I'm working on a solution myself as part of a larger package planned for market later this year. I'll be beating on it with Solo2/drift throughout the summer.

Eh, the part is going to be custom and pretty simple anyway. You'd just have to get yours with a 5x3.88" pattern instead of the 5x103mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
