should be the same , but then i don't think they sell just the bearing , u must buy togather with the hub , cause i`ve asked before if can pump in & pump out , and then the spare part shop said cannot , so i had no choice to buy a new set which is damn expensive .
so best to check your bearing number or take a sample and ask them to check if got stock or not . cause if you can get a new replacement hub , then i also thinking of getting it , so that i can balance the pcd 100 to 114.3 haha .
The new bearing made in china cost RM 70 per unit , if japan mari its RM 170 " NSK " or " KOYO "
Mine works well - it bites nearly as good as I was using the drums previously, although at one occasion it has to be re-adjusted due to one mech who drive off my car for testing without releasing the h/brake!
Just need to know what's the difference if we use OE drum's handbrake cable as disk's handbrake.
Anyway, my left rear disk are not "entirely" covered by the pad, uneven surface perhaps? Some says let the pad runs until it's even. I'll wait and see. :D
well if your cables are mount the correct way as in following the original route , then you shouldn't have an issue , of one side bites more then the other side . if your mechanic had pusing pusing the pistons , then you should ask him to readjust both pistons at the same level , cause if you notice the piston is been screwed to a bolt that connects to the handbrake lever cable , so even if the pads has bed in , you`ll still have issues , because h/b works via cable tension mechanism and its not hydraulic , so bed in pads wont help getting the h/b balance .
maybe i should show you whats inside the rear brake mechanism , i`ll just have to dig up my rear calipers and show u the picture . then from there i bet u`ll get what i mean .
Dang! That's the word I suppose to use - bedding in!
Thanks for the enlightenment vesty.
Anyway, what I meant was uneven bedding-in during normal braking, not h/brake - the end result is obvious from the left disk. Right disk is virtually in full contact with brake pad (no rusts etc)while the left side has approx 75% disk contact with the pad. (rusts on lower radius for about 25% of disk no contact with brake pad)
What do you use for your front? Mirage? VR4?
I'm running on E12A supertouring, much older than the C51 rear, but still tip top and had no problem whatsoever.
p/s: Bet you don't need your rear disks anymore since you're "downscaling" your engine output?
i previously used my OEM Handbrake Cable on my REar E12A Disc. There are a few mods u would have to do.
1. Extend the L bracket a bit . ( the bracket that hold the cable at the calliper )
2. Have to hammer a bit the Calliper handbrake holder, just to make sure that the
handbrake cable's end does not slip off. and stay intact..
Now i'm currently looking for a VR4 rear disc, i think it looks a lot bigger :D

No photos as yet, but mine is slightly bigger than stock saga/iswara, both calipers and disks combo, and it is ventilated, not soild (read: not slotted or cross-drilled though..hahaha).
But I was told the auto version for the E12A is bigger than my manual E12A, both calipers and disks.
how much did it cost you to make the new hub ? or did u purchase it from spare part ?
thanks..
i wanted to pump in a new bearing , but the machine shop say cannot , cause the bearing is not meant for pumping in & out . so went to the spare part shop , they also say that this hub comes togather with the bearing , as you can't pump in & out .
japan made hub + bearing will cost about RM 170 , NSK or NNT or KOYO .
after i selling of my rear mirage disk brake,now i'm using rear honda sm4 disk match with a mazda 626 caliper,,...just diy machined the caliper bracket holder a bit...
