Thought i would try on here as well to see if anyone has any /knows where i can buy a set of adapters for my sierra hubs (5.0 litre chim) to allow the fitment of AP 5200 4 pot racing brakes. Also can i fit 300mm discs under the standard 15" wheels , i have seen it done with wilwoods i think, but i don't know if AP's are bigger?

With Wilwoods it is extmely tight and I'd say it wasn't feasible unless you were determined and lucky. Most calipers suppliers will supply mounting kits in varying states from ready to bolt on for standard cars, to blank slabs of aluminium ready to make your own mounts from scratch. It's something you really want to get right so if I were you I'd get a specialist to do it for you uless you particularly want the experience of doing it for yourself.

Try Hi-Spec motorsport, it's where my adaptors for AP's came from, they do nice calipers and conversions as well.....

Hi
I have done a similar conversion. AP 5200 calipers as fitted to TVR Cerbera and 300 x 28mm disc. I used 16 inch spiders.
I saw the exact conversion your looking for, at the Autosport show on the Austec stand. Give them a call. Good Luck

Usually I recommend people who I've dealt with, occasionally I don't.

I've dealt with Hi-Spec.
