Charade G200 (1996): Sourcing rear brake shoes

Forum: 

Hello all,

I am from Adelaide Australia. This is my first post. This
site is the only Charade/"Hatty" site around, and it looks
pretty good, so a big thank you to everybody on that point.

Getting technical data and parts for my car is bloody hard.
For the past 2 months, I have been trying to get rear brake
shoes. All I get are incompatable brake shoes that are
claimed to be for my car.

I have given up trying to buy them locally. It would be
easier swimming over to Japan and asking them... Apparently
(so I am told), Daihatsu were really dodgy in the factory
and it was practice for them to deviate from the design. I
am thinking that this may have been the case with my car.
Is there a supplier that has a clue with Hatty's Unknw

My rear brake shoe profile is:

Diameter: 180mm
Width: 27mm

I can provide a photos if you like.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
have you tried the Daihard forum, its Aus based and surely someone could find you some shoes closer to home??

Are these what you are looking for?

Uk based but might ship out to you in Australia.

All the best,
Dave UK.
