Possibly.

You'd need to run a spacer between the hub and original caliper mount correct, so you'll have a bracket attached to the hub that is then attached to the calliper/bracket. Is this correct or am i looking at it wrong.

I know when i put the AP's on my last monaro i switched to a larger discs and fitted a 15mm spacer between the top of the bracket and the caliper, i got dragged over the pits for a non engineered blower and they nailed me for the spacers. I couldnt find an engineer anywhere that would sign there name to it.
