View Full Version : Discs for V6 Brake Conversion
I have been told that Fiat Marea discs are good for the conversion.
They are 284mm, Vectra ones are 288mm.
The pads I will be using Vectra ones.
The Marea discs have an internal hub diameter of 59mm, Nova's are 60mm, will this matter?
The pads will either be very close to the edge of the disc, of just off the edge of the disc, will this matter?
Thanks for an information

I think it's him that is running these.
I also remember reading you have to rout the holes a bit cos the pcd is couple mm off.

im sure one of my mates mensioned you could use corrado discs - they are already 4 stud and correct pcd - correct me if im wrong tho?
Ok, the discs are a measured 284mm, and the pads will hang of the edge by 2-3mm, will this matter?

cav v6 used 284mm disks anyway so you should be fine with pad overlap as long as u get cav v6 pads
why not just use cav/cally turbo brakes?
there 284mm,
thats what i'm running

cav/cally turbo run 284mm discs with 5 stud discs.
v6 vectra's run 288mm disc's.
get the v6 discs/calipers and get the discs redrilled to 4 stud!
i got mine redrilled at a engineering place for ?15, this included the spiggot ring pressed into each disc so that they sit tight on the hub.

What?
So they're 5 stud then. Just checking as I asked about 4 stud 284/8mm discs a while ago and found there are none.
no sorry,
the 4stud,
i have a friend that redrills them for me.

lol, never mind, I obviously didn't explain myself simply enough. If you need them re-drilled to 4 stud then they are a 5 stud disc!
like I said, only asking as I haven't found any 4 stud 284/8 yet bar similar fiat/lancia discs.
