Re: brake upgrade on a gb
I know you asked for other options, but this is some reasons why Sigma struts are so commonly used in brake conversions on Galants/Lancers.
They bolt pretty much straight in and they are cheap and easy to get hold of.
A Sigma uses the same size bearings as a Falcon but the stub axle is shorter, you can bore the outer bearing position of a Falcon hub to be used on the shorter axle. Trailer hubs are a cheap way of getting a brand new hub to use (about $40 each) galantgrunt used this conversion on his GD Galant
A Sigma strut also narrows your front wheels track so you can run wider or bigger offset rims. But there are other options, have a look at this topic http://www.sigma-galant.com/viewtopic.p ... 54&p=73824
