          Sorry the kit is designed to use the larger 5 lug rotors/calipers and drive flanges.

            Ohh it'll be a while until that happens. Gotta put a motor back in the chassis first. Once that's done and I have V8 POWAAAAAHHH I'll still need to do burnouts with my old wheels and tires until the tires are bald.

                    Is that a problem? I have 4 nuts that are all the same, thought this is how it's supposed to be?

                    Also, what's a good source for the M3 rear hubs? They are quite expensive at $231 through ECS. Any cheaper sources? Any chance of a group buy?

                        Sent you a PM! If they are the same we can get that straightened out.

                        ECS was the cheapest I found as well. Let me look into a group buy on the flanges.

                          I have a problem...

                          Can anyone tell me the thickness of the mounting point for the bracket on a standard strut? I guess they are thicker on my coilover struts.
                          Mine are 14mm thick.

                          The M12 bolts are too short and the caliper carrier is not in the correct position at all.

                            My bracket is flipped from yours by the looks of it. Don't know about the hardware though, I bought mine a while back before they came with hardware

                              Yes it's flipped because I tried it both ways. The correct way brings the carrier even further back.

                              Edit: I havent torqued down the bearing properly, just tightened it by hand. Might be some millimeters to spare in the back there :D

                              Edit 2: But the M12 bolts are still too short..

                                I can measure the thickness of the mounting tabs when I get home and the length of the bolts that I used.
