I need info about 308 brakes

by 1llusion » Tue Oct 25, 2005 10:56 am

At the moment I am driving with 298 brake disks
from carlton 3.0 24V model.

now I need 10MM spacers on each side, and brake disks are very dificult to get hand to.
In holland nobody knows anything about 308 disks, so not worth asking there, but here I start reading more and more about it.

What do you need to mod to youre car to get 308 Brake disks mounted.
Are there being sold any sets ready for mounting.
What brakedisks do you need?
Are brakedisks standard vauxhall ones, or modified to fit on Calibra, like I have now.

My car is a 2.5V6 with at the moment 16"alloys
switching to 17" wil not be a problem if that is nescecary.

this may help or may not a guy posted this on corsa-b.co.uk give him a shout!

These are needed for converting to the 288/308mm V6 disks set up on 4 stud cars. they are to centre the disk on the hub as the centre bores are different.

Usual price is £10 a pair posted.

Special price for corsa-b users is £8 delivered.

please e-mail

<a href="mailto:justdavetuning@hotmail.com">justdavetuning@hotmail.com</a> with your order information, cheque, cash and paypal accepted.

Well according to all the info I know, It is possible to mount standard OPC rings on my Calibra.
As I have V6 5 Studd.
But I don't know If the calipers should be altered.

That is what interests me most at this moment
If anybody knows, please tell me
