Which Cars Can i get 288 discs+Calipers from?

[Andy]

Going to U-pullit as i have an unexpected day off,was off to get some 288 discs and calipers for my nova.Was wondering what cars these were fitted to and what fits.I know they were on various Vectra's and Omega's but wondered if they fit on Nova's??
Any help is always appreciated:thumb:

minimum 15' alloys
get meriva 280mm disc's and cav/cali v6 calipers

[Andy]

no cav's or calibra's there apparently

[napalm_27]

vectra..?
anything with a 2.5/3.0 v6 engine in really

[rubachuk]

Are the meriva 280mm discs a suitable replacement for the 288mm?

Edit: Sorry, slight hijack.

[jimbob-mcgrew]

cav turbo ran them im prety sure, possibly the top shelf calibra too.
prob best off taking your tape measure with ya, and checking every vauxhall there lol

[napalm_27]

4 stud fit nova's no drilling ;)
i do think they fit with the v6 calipers but i havnt comfirmed it yet :thumb:
so away you go if you want to try :thumb:

Im sure I saw a nova for sale that had 288mm v6 calipers and it said it was using Lancia delta HF Turbo discs.

They are the same fitment as Fiat Coupe discs afaik /\

[MattBrown]

Calibra and Cav Turbo calipers with 284mm disks!

So fiat coupe turbo disks, with cal/cav calipers!

Picked a mint set up for £50 at the vboa day!

[Adam]

Its the normal fiat coupe you need discs off, not the turbo version. They have 308mm Brembos

[MattBrown]

Thats what I meant, sorry, got mixed up with cav and fiat lol

andy most face lifted veccys 2.0 have 288mm discs and pads, earlier ones are V6 only (5 stud is a give away)

meriva/combo 280mm discs are great but you cant fit the matching callipers ive tried

omega callipers are diff to veccy ones and dont fit

[Adam]

Yep, all 5stud veccys had 288s


Just use meriva discs with cav/cally calipers, should work fine

[blue_peg_16v]

i have a drivers side caliper you can have andy

off a vectra v6

[Sloth]

andy, you can also use alfa romeo 147 disks and fiat brava/o 20v disks.

[djbrowney]

try to avoid the vectra 288 calipers and find a set of 284 from a cav becasue the piston in the 288 is bigger. using the 284 wont put so much strain on the servo/master cylinder ! thus not causing a sponge pedal feel !

[Stuart]

brand new plain 288mm discs (ok 5 stud) from AV are about £20 each....

[djbrowney]

he beat me to it ^

[Nova-rich]

Im sure I saw a nova for sale that had 288mm v6 calipers and it said it was using Lancia delta HF Turbo discs.

Yes thats right im running cally turbo calipers with Lancia delta discs.

[General Baxter]

lmf sell 288 4 holes disks :)

[Andy]

well i got some off a cdx v6 vectra in the end.
Will be getting some drilled and grooved meriva discs i think as LMF's are a little on the expensive side for an extra 8mm lol

[Adam]

lmf sell 288 4 holes disks :)
Yeah, AKA Fiat coupe discs....

[djshaggeh]

lmf sell 288 4 holes disks :)

Yeh but iirc there pretty expensive. I bought a set of 288 calipers for £20 and started looking into it. I couldn't justify spending £20 on calipers and I think it was £90 for discs and I didn't want to drill them. I'm a real tight **** I know.

[Adam]

My discs cost £36 off ebay

[Sloth]

mine cost £10 from a breakers.

[Andy]

My discs cost £36 off ebay

[Adam]

I'll have a look mate, im talking 6 month ago though.

[Adam]

Linky no worky any more.
And the link in my feedback now no longer works because it was longer than 90days ago.

They were Fiat Coupe discs.

[Andy]
