Can you still get those finned drums new? I was at a wrecking yard in Perth and spotted a pair on a 240Z, but the wrecker was very reluctant t to sell them to me.He reckoned that they were pretty hard to come by. I've seen lots of people racing 1600s with them on, they upgrade the front brakes with bigger and/or vented discs, and just bolt on the aluminium Z drums on the rear. Easier than the hassle of going to rear discs -although rear discs are the ultimate stopping option obviously.

That seems very reasonable. They seem to do a good job on a Z, so I guess they would be very good for a little 1600

Hi all,

       Just wondering how much a set of "Z" finned alloy brake drums are worth and do they make a difference to a 1600 over standard drums.

 

Thanks,
