Hi all

The 86 760(V6) I own has 287mm/11.25inch single piece disc with Bendix calipers. the disc are just on the Minimum thickness 20.8mm. This means replacment of the front discs there is two options one is to buy new DBA (disc brake Australia) 287mm slotted discs or the Big Brake conversion. The question is are the two piece disc with the measurement 287mm dia and 26mm thickness is this the discs that are called the Big Brake conversion. And to fit these to my car I will need the discs hubs and the Girling cailpers off a 92 or later 700 or 900 series car. Any information on this subject would greatly appreciated

George
