There would probably be a bit of a market since lots of people don't want to replace their wheels and the main problem is often fade or warping rather than inadequate braking power in usual situations. Using an FG turbo with 320 mm rotors, so 280 mm working diameter, going up to 355 would still give about more than 10 % extra torque at working diameter of 315 mm, fill up the wheels nicely, and never overheat.... Only difficult part would seem to be sourcing a caliper that is available locally (ideally) that will fit over a 32 mm disc, given PBR C6's are hard to come by, but if one could be found quite a few people might be interested, me included. UPC in Bayswater seem to use a modified VE Commodore Caliper on a 32 mm disc, not sure what they to do achieve this, but at any rate not offering it for VE V8s of Hipo Fords...

Hi Matt,
We should look at this. I will see if we can make a extended dog bone for the factory caliper and use to use a larger disc for the front. We make a 30mm disc so will do some checking to see what we can do to retain the factory slider.

Cheers
