Mk1 Commodore Caliper, 278mm Magna rotor conversion

I'll be up for that one

No wuckers. I've got a friend that's an EBC dealer, so i'll even hook the kits up with some EBC green pads. Or red, if they're strictly for racing.

Hi guys,
I have just been looking at this thread & thought that it might be a lot easier to do a g60 280mm coversion. That way you can use all VAG component with no engineering to be done except for instalation on a mk1, which there are some very good adaptor plates for the hub to fit the caliper carrier.
Another caliper called Girling 60 ( not the g60 which is made by Lucas) that was used on top end audies in the 1980-90's which is a 2 piston, 280mm. Its carrier will fit onto a mk3 & mk2 16v hub with no enginering needed.
I landed the Girling 60s from ebay motors for $250aud including postage
(Audi Auswant $4300a set new) & there are always a few sets going

As soon as i've done mine and worked out all the issues, if people are interested, i'll start making some kits up..

Any word on these preen??

Lots of talk here but did anyone ever build up any kits?

Never saw any of the components or drawings thereof, So I just stick to the VAG parts bin
