That is the one I was trying to find, they actually do make that for real. I looked but never found them.

Mmmmm, brass nipples make me HOT.....

where can you buy that adapter?

BTW- did you have to mod the caliper to clear your rim scott?

You would need two if your only doing 1/2 your car

here is the drawing for it...not too hard to make at all........

Yeah, I did it after I painted them too. So I had to go back and repaint them. I got the T fittings from Kymco down here in Costa Mesa, you can probably get them at any VDub place. Kymco charged me like 9 bucks each as opposed to someone telling me they were only 5 each.

Mike, since you have it all right there, why dont you make up a few dozen and sell them. I would take a couple of them. I am pretty sure Aaron will too and maybe Bernbomb as he runs the same calipers on his car.

Brass? AL? steel?

I would think brass since the T fittings I have are brass.

Mike will they fit BMW 2002 units? This is my setup. I would like a set of those if they fit....

The Volvo units are very much bigger than the BMW units. And a lot heavier. I'll try to get out in the shop tomorrow sometime and measure them.

I have 15" wheels and no clearance issues. (disclaimer, I'm running spacers) I was attempting to upgrade to a 4 piston unit without increasing the unsprung wieght. These were a direct fit without the pad over hang issues and machine work needed for the BMW 320 units.

for these volvo calipers are they the ATE or GIRLING types?

SCHWEET!!!

How bout adopting a 35 year old?

dan,


believe they are girlings......

see what AZ price youcan get

Mine are ATE, they are for the vented rotors, maybe the non vented are Girling.

QUOTE (skline @ May 11 2005, 10:51 AM)

Depends upon year and model fitted to:

160 Series.....ATE (Vented Rotor)....'72-'75
Girling (Soild Rotor)....'67-'74

240/260.....Girling Solid Rotor.....'75-87
Girling Vented Rotor.....'75-'87
ATE Solid Rotor.......'75
ATE Vented Rotor.....'75



Good luck on your choice..................

Girling for solid rotors are for 914 struts.

scott/ron

which one for 3" spacing and vented rotors?

AND BTW- hawk racing makes pads for these calipers 50 bucks a set

QUOTE (Aaron Cox @ May 11 2005, 12:27 PM)

3" spacing

Solid Rotor....'75-'87 Volvo 240/260 Girling

Vented Rotor...'75-'93 Volvo 240/260 Girling

Have not measured the ATEs as yet, but should be the same.

And if you have 911 struts don't you want 3.5" spacing ?

Solid rotor...BMW(whatever), Bavaria...'71-'77

QUOTE (Aaron Cox @ May 11 2005, 09:50 AM)

dan, believe they are girlings...... see what AZ price youcan get

ive got them priced at $60 a piece w/ a lifetime gurantee & prolly $30 for some good brakes w/ a lifetime gurantee...

$60 for loaded and $30 for unloaded?

QUOTE (SLITS @ May 11 2005, 02:50 PM)

$60 for unloaded 4-Piston Units...

http://www.fcpgroton.com/volvo240brake.htm#calipers

Check the link above that was posted....$60 each loaded (yeh, they want a $25 core and shipping).

i will admit that's a better price, but the shipping of the cores wouldnt be so nice. i'd prefer having a lifetime warranty. Autozone price and 20% employee discount

Well for the solid 914 rotor guys, they have brand new girlings for $69 and no cores.

BAH that stupid link didnt work...here's a screenshot

FENCO (Fenwick) is a rebuilder out of Canada

ARI (American Remanufacturers, Inc..old ACEI) is out of Anaheim, CA.

ron, either one any good?

I'd prolly go with ARI (my apologies to the Canucks) based on business experience.

ARI down here does calipers, boosters and CVs. Their name (before acquisition) was Automotive Caliper Exchange, Inc (ACEI).

Fenco does everything in their Canadian location.

If you can afford new...get new!

rebuild kits for girling calipers are 23 bucks a pair...

im so stoked....

and ron. i have mcaliper 3" struts
