morgan Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 Hi everyoneI'm after a twin pot brake kit for my glanza If anyone has one or any information on the best way to make one up that would be great Thanks
aleximport25 Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 speak to russ78 on here he makes this kits up so its nice and easy, ill be getting my kit soon and he has been so helpful throughout
5e colin Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 levin twinpot brakes go well with opel astra disks apec 2188 get them cut down to 260mm and 1.5mm from the inside pdc face no longer wheel studs needed and no spacers needed
morgan Posted March 4, 2016 Author Posted March 4, 2016 Yer he is a great guy but think he has a lot on right now as hasn't replied to me, really wanted his 260mm kit and need it asap

5e colin Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 ^^^^ thats interesting nice tip for 280mm brakes the st202 carriers make it to 277mm only
morgan Posted March 4, 2016 Author Posted March 4, 2016 Hummm just have to wait till russ gets back to me then I think, really need new set up as the stock brakes are shocking
aleximport25 Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 he will get back to you dude, i know hes got a couple of sets.
morgan Posted March 4, 2016 Author Posted March 4, 2016 he will get back to you dude, i know hes got a couple of sets.Great stuff don't wana seem like I'm bugging him really.Sent him 3 messages already lol He doesn't live far from me as well so could even pick them up
Bug679 Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 See when I was talking to russ he said the astra discs don't need any work to fit the gt4 twin pots, it's all bolt on just need a spigot ringSo no longer wheel studs or spacers or anything for the gt4 brakes with Astra discs ? That would be awesome. Do you know would it all fit under 15 inch wheels ?
5e colin Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 ^^^^^ thats impossible as the gt4 4pot uses 30mm thick disks opel 25 !!!!!
Bug679 Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 I think I'll stick with the setup you pm'd me before Colin as it works for you 😀 Just looking an upgrade so thanks for the setup advice tried and tested 👍🏻
lukEp Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 (edited) See when I was talking to russ he said the astra discs don't need any work to fit the gt4 twin pots, it's all bolt on just need a spigot ringThis!! That's all I did. Had the spigot ring made and all just bolted on. ST185 discs are 25mm thick col Edited March 4, 2016 by lukEp
daniel_g Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 ^^^^^ thats impossible as the gt4 4pot uses 30mm thick disks opel 25 !!!!!Nobody said gt4 4pot (that would be a st205)Reckon Bugy ment the st185 gt4 (twinpot calipers)
5e colin Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 ha so there not al the same size on the gt4s good to know indeed
