there is a bit of info on VL brakes in there....

I would suggest 289mm discs are the biggest as they are what the callipers for a VT are designed for...

Hi EVL87
If it's a performance brake system you are actually looking for, then my advice is not to go with VT calipers, they are not a performance caliper and the only reason they are around (cheap) is coz HSV throw them out, they don't want them on their cars.
You will also have pedal feel/height problems with VT calipers.
We do a well designed brake system for your car which uses a Twin Piston Performance caliper - like HSV's Black Performance Caliper, 296mm Slotted discs, Brake Master Cylinder, Booster, Stainless Steel Hoses etc etc.
Our systems come with Engineers Certificate for compliance to ADR31/00.
Call me on 1300 55 66 40 and we can talk about it.
