Just picked up my new au series one xr8 and the brakes need to be fixed asap, i have recod calipers, braided brake lines, slotted rotors and brand new pads currently on my eb v8 fairmont.
What i would like to know is what can i use/transfer onto the au. XR8 is an option 20 with rear disk's drilled, full tickford body kit in need of some tlc, 18'' amg rims with tinted windows. |

The calipers would be the only thing that could be transferred.
If you want brakes on one , fit the Series 2 bits in the front end and then fit BA BF calipers and rotors. |

yes from S2 on they are the same as BA but on S1 the mounts are different. to upgrade the S1 to S2 you need to replace the Stub axle , lower control arm, stabiliser bar, hubs, rotors and callipers. even stock S2 brakes are a big step up from the under braked S1
