Can the Starion Disks be used on the Sigma Stub Axle using different bearings?
Or do you mean Starion Struts have to be used also?

Starion brake callipers wont bolt to the Sigma struts, so you'll need the Starion strut + hub + rotor + calliper. You need the Sigma strut top, and the Starion uses the same front springs as the Sigma. Unfortunately, DBA don't make the DBA400 rotor, which is for the Starion front. RDA do, there is some on eBay, but still not that available.

Thanks Cottees,
I was wanting to see if I can use the Starion Disk on the Sigma Strut/Stub Axles,
By just useing different bearings inner and outer o make it work??

I will make an adaptor to suit the Calipers as required

Just had another look at the front bearing kit for the Starion and Sigma, and both are GBC GBK0214. If you want to make custom parts, you might want to look at more common rotors and callipers.

These are the bearings from a Starion hub :

The reference numbers on them are LM67048 and LM11949.

A quick search on those part numbers sent me here :

Looks like the 4 stud Supras and Coronas use the same bearings. As well as others too.
