    Default T-18 drums

    hey guys,

    had a quick search but couldn't find what i'm after.

    i need new drums for my t18 and repco only had a listing for ra40 celica. just wondering if they'd be the same size etc?

    cheers

    RA60 have the same ones, EPC doesn't seem to think that RA40's do though.

    Same as XT130 and RT132 Corona as well.

    Checked part numbers in RDA catalogue.

    You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?

    if ur gonna buy new drums why not just convert to disc?
    rt142 corona rear discs are almost a bolt on affair.

    well its only a daily drifter so don't need any huge stopping power. drums are cheap and lock the handbrake up well and the brake conversion might need engineering. thanks for the advice guys. will order them next week

    rt142 have an internal drum inside the rotor, so you have a drum handbrake and caliper footbrake. best of both words.

    since the rt142 is a t-series rear end and its pretty much bolt on its dead easy to get a mod plate for.

    Problem is, he would then have to get everything else engineered, and thats probably not going to happen.
