SillyCarS,
the one on the right is fooked, it wont have enough meat holding the handbrake shoes in place and could potentially lock up on you at speed IF it does snap off,
is it worth spending the extra time to fix? hell yes.
cheers

And then a stitch where the meat was removed...Originally Posted by The Real Roadrunner
Is that going to be sweet??

thankyou linden for correcting this because it happened to me to.

Ok...
Pics as sent to me from Youngy..
Backing Plate
Detailed pic of the inside of the backing plate.
Detailed pic of the outside of the backing plate
Axle all together
On Car
This is from the Toyota Supra manual and shows where the springs need to go. There is some confusion on how that is done.
The one with no colour is black. What it does not show is the yellow spring that goes between the shoes on the bottom - sits in behind the adjuster
Thanks Youngy...
I might have to pull my rear disks apart one day...

MPW has some good pics in his thread for this aswell. you can see all the spring colours and where they go.

when fitting the calipers to a 1270 diff on an RA28 you need to modify the shock lower mount points to clear the calipers,
Can anyone tell me if you have the 1310 diff is this shock mod still needed to clear the caliper?
nevermind

hey has anybody had to shim the back of the pins that retain the the brake shoes, so they don't hit the axle studs?
no i didnt. dosent sound good.

OK guys, so I'm using MA70 Backing Plates and MA70 Slotted Rotors and was planning to make a custom bracket from scratch and use an R32 Skyline Rear Caliper.
After a bit of comparison between the R32 Skyline Rear Caliper and the MA70 Supra Rear Caliper, it seems that the R32 Skyline Rear Pads are about half the size.
Now, a single piston caliper with twice as much pad surface area as the R32 caliper, would be heaps better than a twin piston caliper with half as much pad surface area as the MA70 caliper, yes?
What about brake bias?
Anyone hear running R32 Calipers and Discs (or equiv disc) on the front with the MA70 setup on the rear? How does the bias feel?
It all comes down to pressure man.
Remebering force = pressure / area
and the friction force is a function of that normal force.
What u would need to do is equilibrate the two and leave pressure and friction properties constant. (choose 1 if u have to). So essentially the pad area of the single piston set up would have to be huge compare with the twin piston.
I'm on my ph at the moment. Can explain better when I get to work tomorrow
why the change or you just want to be different? ma70 works a treat and have had no probs yet.
cheers mat
sorry i think i misunderstood where your coming from, your original statement reads that the single spot would be better
if youve got 32 quads on the front and can make the rear twin pitons fit. go for it, you prob will need brake bias valve though just on weight distribution. though you would either way
