NO, I dont believe so. You can put G-60s on but that requires
using UR-Q (BEST Way) or 5kt Struts. For a rally car best option is the
Wilwood Dynalite 1 calipers??? ROns Parts sells a kit as does Todd Candey
and maybe some others. Most still use an 11" rotor though which means 15"
wheels but stock struts and bearing can be used. You could mount this
caliper on a 10" stock rotor though with a custom bracket. Or for that
matter you may be able to make a G-60 work on stock caliper. I think Mark
Nelson has done this on one of his cars.
Hope that helps. Keep in touch so we can trade info, I will be
doing my Rally Car Prep as soon as the Turbo motor is in. L8R
