Stoptech sent me the C43 template, I've attached it to this post. Absolutely be sure that you measure an X and a Y measurement with a ruler or vernier calipers after printing and verify that the measurements are correct before you test with the template.
I have also attached the 328x28 ST40 template.
Do not assume that you can clear a C43 on the same wheels as a ST40, the caliper extends towards the spokes of the wheels by almost 2mm more and the caliper starts closer to the hub rotating center by about 10mm (!!!).
I can confirm that a 17x10 +55 Wedsport SA72R will clear the ST40 caliper and the C43 caliper, but the C43 is incredibly tight clearance wise.
I absolutely love my v8roadsters stoptech BBK. 4 pistons, 328x28mm rotor, nickel hats, str43 caliper, and DR21 pad shape. Essentially its a beefier c43 kit. Both wheels fit without the use of spacers. V8R str43 trophy kit
My track/autox wheels ;17x8 +50 enkei pf01 with about 4.5mm of clearance.
Sweet, another V8R kit owner. Who else has this besides you, me and adrs2k? This kit seriously needs more attention.
as far as I know it may just be us, I stopped inquiring once I got the complete kit in dec 2018 with the new rotors.
Surprisingly they don’t really market it besides their website
What makes it a "beefier" kit than the C43? It uses the same pad shape (same surface area) and has a slightly larger rotor diameter, but less thickness. 328x28mm vs 309x32mm

in the sense that the str43 caliper is slightly heavier than the c43 at 5lbs or so. Not in the sense that it is a more heavier duty setup, that’s a toss up.
