They arent a direct bolt on tho.
U may need to drill out 1 of the holes bigger.I done all 4 so i didnt need spigot rings.
Otherwise the wheel bolt dosnt line up and its a cunt to get the wheels on.Ul have to drill the screw hole a bit bigger aswell so that the discs stay in place but it can be done without the screw in.Just more fuking about.

Kurt.......do u notice a difference with the braided lines??Ive got a set sitting here but too lazy to fit them.

Cav and Cali turbo brakes are 284mm


early ones are 284
later ones are 288


It thought the early were 284 and later 286 and the Vectra 288?

Why not get a set of Vectra calipers and carriers from a scrappers then a set of Discs from Vauxhall, The Vectra discs on trade club are £55 AND you get the pads FREE!
Then a set of spigot rings from Chris Astley for £15 and use this template to drill the 5 stud discs to fit your 4 stud hub.
