Fronts only as per Op`s "Q". Rears are vented on 2.6/3.2 but he probably knows that being a "member of old" :D

Perhaps a slip of the digit, but shouldn't that be 296x28?

Just a slight off topic

But does anyone know if you can fit the 330mm willwood fronts from an astra gsi?

Would think, you will need a spacer, or different bells to fit.

Different bells and a specific Monaro caliper...

That said, Baggedestate, whose name escapes me at this time of day :-[, found a fim that does Omega specific bells with various brake kits :y

Hi-Spec in Dartford will do all sorts of uprated custom brakes for sensible prices. Personally, I would be looking through the catalogues for an unmodified disc that is a bigger diameter/thicker than stock. Uprated discs are still consumable parts,  and having to modify them every time you replace them is best avoided. Then I would pick a caliper, as fitting that is the easy bit.

The easiest upgrade, is the one Mr teleporter had, which is the Monaro brakes, if you want to go HUGE, drop serek a pm he does an audi/porche conversion :o
