Tell that to the bloke at work who had catastrophic component failure of wilwood parts which wilwood admitted but refused to do anything about the damage due to them being "race parts" used on the roadOriginally Posted by tony k

The reyland ones are spot on although they will not fit behind speedlines
im not doubting u but there was deff a set on a cavalier gsi red with white speedlines and was on the front cover of total vauxhall.....ill try find it but i do remember no reference to facts about tgeb wheels in tech spec.....maybe the callipers had been modified

I ran 308mm discs under 16" rims, tons of space..... saying that they were TD wheels and had an offset of about 20ish
lo-spec tend to be somewhat random in their quality
I had hi specs on my nova turbo, must say I thought they were great. Got them off a mate that had them on an xe corsa.
Mine are 308mm disks and I have spacers on my compomotives, I tried a set of speedlines and they would not clear the calipers. Maybe the cav ones are different to a nova? I want to put a set of comp th2's on mine as I love them wheels but I think I will have to have a custom set made to clear calipers.
Only pic I have but if you look at the top of the caliper there is about 5mm clearance.
I run Hi-Spec callipers front & rear & there ok.
They do have dust seals.
I think if I were to build another I would go Wilwood though. Purely for the heritage & there a worldwide company rather than I manufacturer in a shed in uk somewhere.
I run Wilwoods and mine have dust seal. Was a pain sorting disc for them, as they sit very far back when bolted on. But an hour with a brake book and i had discs.
Work great, stop really well, You need special hoses tho as the brake line fitting is a US imperial fitting. RD changed me £20 for to front hoses, so not bad.
All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one PepsiFar from suicidalStill I get them tendenciesBringing back them memories
That I really miss when I reminisce
Sorry for the random thread hi jack but was just wondering how the reyland calipers fasten to the nova ie did they come with a mounting bracket or do they just bolt straight on?
Thanks J
