i will soon be buying a 9 inch diff for my torrie, and the bloke said it will come with disk brakes with vy stud pattern.

i have seen the upgrade for the hq brakes on the front but then i found out hq and vy commodore stud pattern is slightly different.

what is the best way i can get brakes on the front with vy stud pattern so there all the same?

have the front redrilled and studded to suit.
you will probably have to purchase new blank rotors.

so where is the best place to get blank rotors?

would it still be worth doing the hq brake upgrade then getting blank hq rotors and getting the vy pattern in them?

oh, and does any1 know where you can purchase those harrop steering arms, caus i went to their website and it doesnt say anything about them

cheers

spare parts or brake shops and yes if you plan running commy pattern, personally i got so troubled (in my head) with commy offset i kept the front HQ and changed the rear instead.

keep trolling thru the brake topic and read up on this one as its had quite a few comments on it.
