im thinking of some 2l breaks for the nova, just got some questios lol

would 2l breaks fit under 15 inch alloys?

are all 2l breaks the same? eg astra 8v, cally 8v, cav 16v, cav 8v?

can you buy gold hammerite paint? as im thinking of drilled disks and gold callipers?

Yes
No, some early cars wont have ate calipers, avoid them

Yeah, but gold will look crap imo,Lol. Silver and black are best.

2l BRAKES should fit under pretty much all 15's
Its the 16v ones you want tho, 8v ones are smaller, afaik
You'll find them on Astra GTE / GSi, All 16v Cav / Calibras, think the Vectra's use the same as well ??
Hammerite do a Gold colour but it looks sh*te, imo

You can run them on most 14s as long as there not gte/gsi 3 spokes as there not wide enough iirc.

As said, just go for a set of cav gsi 16v brakes, theres quite a few in the for sale section at the minute. :thumb:

Vauxhall want a s**t load for cesaro caps, i tried aged ago.

Try a scrappy, as quite a few wheels share the same caps.

I've got a set of 2ltr brakes Dave.

One has been painted white with radiator paint. ;)
I could supply you with one white and the half empty can to do the other.

I had Cavvy MK3 TD brakes on my SR.

Slightly thinner discs apparently but still worked fine for me. (only 2mm difference)

Get your ass down the breakers yard laddo!
