Will these fit my 2003 MV6 2.6?
« on: 05 October 2014, 17:57:34 »

....and if so can I buy this product cheaper elsewhere?

And before anyone tells me........ yes I know I should be buying genuine GM parts. ;) ;D ;D

We just don't want you to waste what little money you have left on inferior discs that you'll then have to replace a few thousand miles later  ;) ;)

Put it this way, the Mintex discs fitted to mine, bought as a pair, are different dimensions... so much so that my calipers are spaced differently one side to the other or else they would foul the discs :o

I should add they are only tolerated as they are experimental, proving a concept. Funds permitting, it will be getting custom bells with AP discs, assuming I don't go down the full monty Monaro AP set up ::)

I agree, Mr Emd.

There is evidence to suggest that some genuine GM parts are not of the quality they once were.......Exhausts for one. :P :P
