    Question what are these callipers off ?

    I have this pair of commodore callipers but don't know which model they suit.
    They are twin piston sliding callipers, and heaps bigger than my VS. cheers.

    VT / VX / VY / VZ.

    Not 100% sure which EXACT model those particular ones are off, someone else around here will be able to shed some light on it. Personally they look like VY Calipers to me. They look a little bit different to the VT / VX ones.

    Yeah but I was mistaken and don't think these are them. I have a few sets floating about.

    thanks VL Berlina, so the moneys on VT's then ? guess that means they aint worth much, but also means they'd fit the VS if i do the VT upgrade.

    yeah vt/x/y possibly z too, not sure how long those calipers got used for.

    Get yourself a set of vt rotors from the wreckers, the hub rings, some adaptor brake lines from your local brake shop and you got yourself a front brake upgrade.
