My track car has C4 calipers in the front (or at least uses C4 pads). I would like to confirm what rotors are on the car. As you can see from the picture the hub bolts to the rotor.

Anyone know what I have or how I can tell?

Thanks,

Bill P.

Cars of that era could have a Turbo Look option and they would get everything; rotors and calipers.

yep, a turbo look model (through '89) would have turbo (930) suspension/brakes
but these are not 930 calipers, they are later (post '89) and AFAIK, those don't mix with 930 rotors

check this page for brake dimensions
http://www.pelicanparts.com/MotorCity/wmv/brakes.htm

930 rotors are 304mm dia and 32mm thick

964 rotors are 298mm dia and 28mm thick

so since you have (what appear to be) 964 calipers, those are most definately not 930 rotors...

I think your best bet would be to measure the rotor (dia, thickness and bolt patern/offset of the bell) and check with Coleman
(you only need the rotor, not a new bell)
