Re: Vlads Braking Thread Hijack
but vt-vz stuff doesn't really fit the rear, whole point of the discussion to find alternatives. Front is no issue though.
I'm the director of VSH (Vlad's Spec Holden), because HSV were doing it ass about.
Re: Vlads Braking Thread Hijack
Run Nissan all round with the 2 piston rear on the HSV rear rotor? And the 4 piston front on the front HSV front rotor?

Re: Vlads Braking Thread Hijack
prefer not too, don't like jap car stuff on my cars lol.
I've had enough of nissan lately lol.
Whats the min wheel size for them?
I have a whole bunch of R31 rear calipers, all no good really. I kept them for spares for the VN-VS rears as the brackets, pins and boots are the same part.

Re: Vlads Braking Thread Hijack
17 might be ok on a 330mm rotor they are quite a slim caliper.

I worked out the VL-VS finned front calipers are the same front ones as the 1984-1987 C4 corvette just as a useless fact.

Re: Vlads Braking Thread Hijack
Most of the HSV upgrades are corvette as they were made by pbr here in aus so it was easy to source

Re: Vlads Braking Thread Hijack
too bad this particular rear caliper isn't easy though.
Not new anyway. I wonder if its worth asking PBR here if they sell them new? about 4 years ago I was able to buy brand new finned front calipers.
