I Have V6 Brakes ?????

[XE PROJECT]

My nova has v6 front brakes, wanting to buy a set of cross drilled disc but how do i know what ones to buy????

Calibra V6
Cav v6
Vectra v6 Sri OR GSI???)
Omega v6

Or maybe there front a cav or cali turbo?

mine are 288mm

all i know is there 5 stud redrilled to 4 stud which i know i will have to do with new discs

[Southie]

Just measure them. Width and across the face. A local motor factors will then tell you which they came off.

Edit: or take one into a motor factors and they can compare in the brake disc book.

Fiat coupe turbo ones fit iirc

Jack said something about meriva discs fitting, and you dont ned to drill them out like Fiat discs? Not sure what model meriva though.

[Count Vaux Alot]

I didn't think fiats needed drilling either??

[NovaGuy1400SRi]

Fiat's are 4x98pcd so need each hole opened up 1mm and they need spigot rings too.

Meriva vxr are four stud but only 280mm not sure if loosing 8mm of disk is something you'll notice and I run fiat ones, you have to put a 14mm drill through the four stud holes and then it'll locate on the wheels bolts, I dont run spigots as they locate once the four bolts are in, but can be a pain in the ass, trying to get the first bolt in lol

Yep, but as said you need to overdrill the holes by 1mm (14mm drill bit I think). I've done this on mine, much better than redrilling 5 stud to 4 stud IMO. The only drawback is its a pain when you take wheels off etc as you need to hold the disc in the right place, but you could always do a stud conversion...

He did indeed :d

Meriva 1.7TDCi will fit. 288mm, 4 stud.

[Lee H]

Fiat ones actually go on without redrilling as the holes have enough clearance to make up the difference in PCD.

[Jack]

Mine didn't

Try 'em, if they fit then win. If not, its only a 30 second job to enlarge the holes :)

[Lee H]

I've fitted a few sets without redrilling. Guess it depends who makes them then!

[Benn]

So back to the first question, any 2lt vectra or vectra v6, or late calibra.

[Lee]

Pay attention 007

[Jack]

Wrong ones

Feh, I can only find 280mm Meriva discs now. Could have sworn I saw them in 288 guise. Meh

[mowgli]
