cav/cally turbo and early cav/cally v6 brakes are 284mm disks and 54mm pistons IIRC

Late cav/caly v6 and vectra v6 are 288 mm disks and 57mm pistons.

I went for turbo stuff as it should give me the bigger disk (which is the most advantageous bit) without the enormous pedal travel folk seem to suffer with 57mm pistons.
