Hey guys,
The front rotors/pads on my G are due for replacement, so I'm exploring some options. Either get standard size (298mm) slotted DBA's & decent pads or PBR 325mm discs & calipers ( I believe they came standard on FPV BA's & optional on xr6t/xr8's). Or BF/BF2/FG 322mm discs & calipers. I was wondering if any of you guys who upgraded to Brembo's still have any of your old gear, either 325 or 322mm kits for sale? Cheers, Bud

Maybe contact Theo at BPR. I am sure they may have some bits lying around or know someone that does

Look into UPC. They sell decent priced upgrades for AU onwards. I know for my AU3 the 330mm kit was going to be $700 (rotors, pads and brackets for caliper)
Im sure they would have something for BA alot cheaper. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/330mm-ROT...item1c26609655

Hi mate, I bought the 322mm upgrade for my BA. $750 from FTG autosalvage a few years back. Completely new kit, with RDA discs. Race Brakes Sydney also had a similar deal back then too. The RDA discs were the only let down as the BA is a heavy car I found I picked up the odd "hot spot". Would get DBA rotors next if I wasn't selling it.
Worth giving both places a call and see if they have something for yours.

Cheers guys, I just replaced discs & pads for now. Will chase up 325mm combo next time. I can't believe BA series 1 v8's,turbos & lanes all came out with standard size brakes as the rest of the range.
