[burgo]

you dont "need" to but its usually advisable

[geordy_sr]

[burgo]

i use these brakes on my GSI they work great! with std servo and mc.

And all nova MCs are identical. Just for the record.

20mm bore.

I'm happy with my 288's & 16v rear discs off the std MC.

the brakes are off a 2.5 v6 and the disc size is 296mm, is there any disc that size for a 4 stud hub i could use ?

[Adam]

The disc size must be 288, there are no vauxhall 296 discs.

I use 284mm Fiat Coupe discs on mine, there 4stud, but one hole needs opening out slightly

i looked it up in a parts book and it deffo said they were 296x28mm :confused:

Drill out all four otherwise the disc won't sit properly centred.

296x28mm discs are from Senators, Carltons and Omegas.

Geordy, are you the fella that had the white SR at the kirkistown meet?

Oh and just incase you don't know, V6 brakes won't fit behind standard SR 14s!

[geordy_sr]
