vp brake up grades

[chainsawman56]

im curious as to know if the hubs from latter model commedores will fit onto a vp so i can go to hats instead of the current set up for front brakes are the front stubaxles the same on all models

Can not, if you want to go floating discs, you will have to change to vr-vs lower control arms (no stub axle), it will widen your front track by 40mm, which depending on your choice of wheel, could make it to wide for your car. However if you do this you can run just about anything I.e. Harrop HSV Brakes.

Only real option for VP is a Vt Upgrade kit with hubs on the stub axle. Biggest i have is 330mm.

Hope this helps

might i also add to what agrsv8 said, the vr/s lower control arms will give you camber issues upfront, it will corner extreamly well and chuck loops like there's no tomorrow, but the tyre wear will be an issue.

also, you can buy off ebay the hub adaptor's wich allow you to run a standard vt rotor, allowing you to go all the way up to HSV vt brakes, or anything that will fit vt, wich is a vast range these days. the adaptor's are about $300. i hope this helps.

Just be careful - with twin piston calipers and VT rotors (DBA040s I think) you can't run some 15" alloy wheels, because of face thickness and interference. You can, however, run 15" stockies without a problem

Also keep an eye out for a 1" master cylinder if you intend on moving to the bigger calipers - it will help a lot with mantaining pedal feel, as you're having to fill bigger calipers with fluid

Or you can go the VE spec upgrade kit. No need to change the master cylinder or booster. They come in 298 or 322 mm rotors. Press Releases scroll down until you get to the VE spec kit.

I do these kits for $795.
