Has anyone purchased the complete kit from RaceBrakes Sydney? http://racebrakessydney.com.au/brake_kits.html

Bump? I'm waiting for them to get back to me with a price. If it's heaps, I'll try Holden. Can anyone confirm if there is both an ABS and non-ABS VT master cylinder? Ok, haven't heard back from Race Brakes Sydney yet, but... Booran Holden (Cheltenham) quoted me $177 + GST for the VT master cylinder (in stock; one listing only?), and $204 + GST for the VS V6 brake booster (not in stock). Hopper Stoppers wanted $36 for all three line adaptor fittings (BQ40A, a kit with all three; in stock). $455.10 all up. Ok, got a response from Race Brakes Sydney. The kit they do is for the VT master and VT metal booster (twin diaphram), not a VS V6 booster. I was quoted $690 delivered. So it all depends on what booster you want to use. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i picked up the adaptors from hoppers stoppers, 36 bucks in stock all good.

Yep, that's what I was quoted today. I really cbf driving all the way over to Hoppers, I think I'll get them to post them.

5spdvl, not hard to get to. take the westgate out to hoppers crossing, first turn off keep following it around to the grand car wash and you're there. easy to get to and right back on the freeway

Yeah, but I live on the otherside of the city. =P I got a friend that lives in Hoppers, it's always such an effort to visit.

Just a quickie bout the master. is VT non ABS master the same as the ABS one. Cheers

I believe. I didnt think any came out without ABS. Just some parts on Ebay. some ads say 'non ABS' But we all kno ebays rep. cheers guys.

vx model came with abs across the range. vt did not. the masters are the same however, just on non abs models, the bung/blank screw is removed so both ports can be used for front brakes. abs models have this bung screwed in and only uses two lines that feed into the abs unit.

Cheers. I had mixed results on this one....

Holden spare parts - as useless as an ashtray on a motorbike.

get a vt master, mine was an abs model, i had to remove the bung for the second front brake line port on the master for the front brake lines on the vl, like i described earlier. the reason you use the vs resevoir is because you can fill it better because it suits the angle of the vl firewall. if you leave the standard vt resevoir you will find that the fluid can only be filled a certain amount because of the funny angle it sits on. you don't have to change it, but it gives a far better result if you do. the resevoir has a single bolt underneath that you undo and pull the plastic resevoir out of the grommets, easy.

what is needed 2 put a set of vt calipers on a vlt? iv got a complete set of calipers and maser cylinder and my m8 wants it for his calais turbo
