View Full Version : brakes
theres probably a post like this around some where but i need to know. i've got 14 inch revolution rfx wheels and i really need to upgrade my brakes, i wa thinking nova gsi brakes as a better up grade
any other ideas because i can get them from work quite cheeply
if 2.0 cav brakes wont which i think they might then get cav 1.8 iirc then there slightly smaller than cav 2.0 ones

the GTE16v/gsi stuff is the same as cav 2.0 (apart from a slight different piston size)
the key thing is will my wheels fit lol
2.0 brakes fit on 14" steelies iirc but not the gsi wheels (altho the discs might have to be worn down a little i think)
so 1.8 cav ones should be slightly smaller so should deffo fit
i was after these wheels a while back and found out that RFX 2's deffo fit over the brakes but RFX1's might/might not fit.
you may have to take the grinder to the caliper to get some clearence if you are running the orginal wheels

they fit over the astra gte aloys which are 14" by 5.5" wide
if they RFX1's are at least that big u should be alright
