speaking of hubs (sorry to hi-jack here) but is there a 5 lug hub that is interchangeable with the Lanos/Lemans GSE? I remember you talking about the conversion but I don't remember if you just redrilled your OE hub.

Not sure about where in the states. But, if you get similar disks of a dimilar gm car in the states, to the ones i have [off a Vauxhall AStra GTE] All i did was bolt them on where the hubs where and bent the brake lines to suit. Well, when i said i bent them, i didnt, a friend of mine did and they look factory. Sextasic!

Apart from that, all you'll need is a handbrake cable for the disks, and some brake fluid to bleed them. easy peesy. I done mine in about 2 hours, and that was rear disks, rear beam, rear shocks, rear springs and a handbrake cable. Only thing i can think off apart fromt his is, that the beam i used, also off a GTE, had an extra loop for the handbrake cable to go into, and the guy who was helping me, didnt use a GTE beam on his nexia when he done this, and the handbrake cable actually went through on of his rear springs, which was a bit dangerous. So you might hafta fab up a small bracket.

HOLY SHIT!!!!!

i just priced the calipers and they were like $63 plus $50 core charge and the rotors were $47. hella more than what was posted and that was from advanced auto. everything else seemed around the same price but damn wonder how come soo much more than posted.
