bigger calipers

[mistergTRx]

im after any ideas on how to get some bigger calipers for my VP
i have a set of slotted rotors for the front, but they are bigger then the stock units im currently running
the rotors that i want to put on are roughly 290mm
ive heard i can use the calipers from a VR/S, is this correct?
are there any others i can use?
and can i keep the existing M/C or do i need to upgrade that also?

thank you

vp are 290mm discs with finned calipers vn are 270mm and non-finned calipers pretty sure vr and vs calipers are the same part as vp

I think some VP's (Series 1) came out with the smaller calipers and rotors as they still had 14" wheels.

Correct, also not all VN's are the smaller rotor. All FE2 optioned or V8 models had the larger setup.

some GTS models also have the larger calipers, you can tell by the FIN's on the top or side.

If you are keen on spending some serious money like $2500NZD, PBR make a kit just for the VN\VP.
It consists of:
FRONT
330mm Slotted and Cross Drilled rotors
Twin Pot Calipers
Braided Hoses

REAR
270mm (i think) cross drilled and slotted rotors
Single pot caliper
braided hoses.

Ill try find you the link.
They are OEM parts so they will just bolt on the same was the VN's do. They have the same stupid hub design so you dont need to use dodgy hub adapters.

GTS is just some made up NZ bullshit. It's a S with some stupid badges.
