328mm rotors on a VS

Hey guys I've been looking at brake upgrades that don't require any any dramatic modifications. I found this dude in Melbourne selling a kit that includes a bracket to offset the caliper. See picture.

Looks like a good kit to have larger rotors installed but not sure if legal. Your insight would be awesome.

Best bet would be to give him a call and see if they are ADR compliant. Having said that the brackets look pretty good and you should'nt have any trouble getting them certified by an engineer. Make sure you us the right tensile bolts. Also make sure you do things properly as it could come back and bite you if you ever had to make an insurance claim

Is there anyway that he can prove they are adr compliant ? And if so your saying i will need to get them engineered on my vehicle?

I don't know if he could prove they are ADR compliant. He possibly could have some documentation. Yes they should be engineer approved. Many years ago I had brackets made by an engineering company to fit 4 pot callipers off a Mazda onto my vh and they had to be approved by an engineer. I did not have any problem with them. The brackets you have look fairly substantial, Provide you use the correct tensile bolts they should be o.k.
