I've been reading all the stickies on the various brake upgrades deciding on where to go from just vwII's. Just curious, has anybody ever tried to fit one of the Wilwood 256mm brake kits. They're for the Astra gte and come with an adaptor for the four pots, and seeing as the Vauxhall calipers and carriers fit straight on, can't see why these wouldn't. Might need the M12/M10 shoulder bolts?

 

The kit comes in at just under £400, which is a bit more than the others, but four pots would give the tiny coupe some serious stopping power. 

 

Surely someone one has tried?

i ran wilwood 280mm setup which was originally vauxhall. used shoulder bolts to fit. a word of warning to you was how close the mounting bracket will be to fouling the strut.
