I'm in the process of having a 2.0 8v + throttle body conversion into my GSi. Obviously i need to upgrade to bigger brakes. I want to fit either calibre turbo or vectra v6 discs and pads. Am i right in thinking these are 5-stud? What work needs to go into the brake conversion? Help would be much appreciated, cheers lads:)

you need big enough aloys to take the callipers. and to get some custom made discs with 4 holes rather than 5!!
