If I can’t find an alternative discs I will probably go for the viadanny cheaper option I considered above. Agree I think I’d be making a spacer for the Commodore calipers rather than paying £800 each, and I don’t think you’d need 4 pots on the back of a road car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-400 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Got also still the 2-pots (original) on my 400 road car. Works fine. Some pics of a rebuild with spacers: 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they are so I can use that widening kit 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
