B13 Rear Disc

[Kariba]

I have been around the internet and back trying to find the most cost efficient way of converting the drum brakes on my 1993 B13 to discs. I've seen those conversion kits that cost an arm & leg but what are the pros and cons of this conversion kit? On the other hand there is the option of getting the whole rear beam. However its a lot more bulky than the conversion kit and shipping would be a bit more difficult. What do you think is the best option? If you're leading towards the conversion, what's the best brand you recommend and the cost. If you're leading towards the rear beam, where can I find one and the cost.

but the bolt ups aren't different? wouldn't i need to do some drilling?

I was lucky enough to find a Pulsar (RNN14) shell; my intention is to use the interior and suspension from the Pulsar on/in my B13 project. My problem right now is; the front right hub, rotor and caliper are damaged (AD22VF). It would be nice if I got get the set (hub, rotor & caliper) for the front. If anyone can help me out please let me know urgently.

Driver's side wheel bearing had to be changed:

Looking for that alone...where can i get ?

[greaux25]

you can use the b13 rear hub and the b14 rear calippers with the hand brakes cables

[V2NR 3.0]

already an existing b-13 set up disc...just looking for handbrake cables

[nopi_tunervision]

i'm looking for b13 disc brakes cables as well will to pay a lil extra fro a good pair of handbrake cables

[Kariba]

Haven't been on here in a while and progress with the project has been a bit slow. I used the complete suspension (front & rear) from the Pulsar on the B13 however I need to do a little fabrication with the arm that runs horizontal from the chassis to the bottom of the hub.

What I need now is a pair of RNN14 (Pulsar) front brake rotors. They must not have any machining (shaved) or damage done to them.

Been a while but here are some pics of the build.

The car came with a GA16DS (carburetor engine).

Then we tore it apart to clean it up and see the condition of the internals:




I decided since the head was off that I should do a bit of porting:
