It is my understanding that later model (914-4) cars used a "hub centric" style rotors. Is possible to put 73 and later front rotors on my 72?

anyone? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wavey.gif)

yes you can do it, but you may not be happy with the result. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

Calipers won't fit correctly.
I have early rotors on my car and can not fit the calipers on.
The are machined for 5 lug with studs in them (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif)
Now I've got to send out the correct later rotors to get
machined and studs pressed into them so I can get the
calipers mounted.
