yes TE rotors but on Uk 3.0 capri axles - with normal capri pads. The RS used the bilstein strut/ UK 3.0 axles but with vented rotors. The calipers and pads all inter change

How does that differ from ours here? is it the whole shock tower or just the stub axle. And is the bilstein strut just a different diameter or shock strength.

stub axle, hub and rotor are different, shock is held in via a nut at the bottom of the tube - similar to the 2.8i (not a threaded cap as ours) - diameter of the tube is the same. A bit of negative camber...
the tube (only) on the one pictured (a 1973 3.0 Gt) is the same as aust delivered - threaded cap to hold the shock. Same as all UK delivered 3.0's

Cheers Spud. Sort of makes sense, although sounds like shocks for the 3100 would then be a nightmare to find as well as other parts.

id just use "standard" bilstiens or konis.. - I will in my Rs3100 - if I ever get to resurrect it

Hi
 
Can you let me know the part number for the discs in the photo above please? I'm having trouble finding them via google. Thanks!

ill have a squiz tomorrow.
 
below is a good answer to the unavailability of rs3100 ventilated rotors. Use the standard 2.8i ventilated rotor with an adaptor




 
 

Hi
 
Thanks for the reply, much appreciated. I have a 3000GT (UK Facelift model, assembled 12/73) and I'm wanting to retain the original 3.0 struts - and unless my eyes are deceiving me the TE discs shown in the earlier photos are solid and a direct replacement for the Capri 3.0 discs?  The adapters with vented discs in the photos just above look great but I'd have trouble getting those through a vehicle inspection here (I'm in NZ, don't hold it against me ).
 
Thanks.

The drums etc on mk3's are also the same as cortina

To Spud15 - thanks for the PM, I can't reply yet as apparently I've not been a member long enough (3 days + required). I'm in Wellington.
 
Rang Repco this morning and they list TE Cortina discs but cannot give me the dimensions of them so not sure if they have the correct ones to bolt on my car.  Is the PCD of the TE disc the same as the Capri 3.0 disc i.e. will the Capri 3.0 hub bolt to the TE disc? A part number & brand would be very useful
