The UK Monaro's brakes are Holden standard fit, aren't they?

Plus this upgrade has only recently become available in the UK at such an affordable price.

my first experience of brake fade..... oh my g*d. I wasnt driving so quick small country roads uphill to a tight roundabout with offset entry slightly late on the brakes pressed a little harder and nothing.

I am now sure the brakes need doing, up to this point I always thought some of you guys drive with a lot more spirit than I do pushing a little harder and so having more on the edge experiences.

This is the first time the car didnt make me smile

Had a look at a CV8 with a newly fitted HSV setup at weekend, must say they do look awesome and as the owner testified performed awesome as well!

Just at £2500 its a crazy mod way beyond my means, geeze, you could buy a fun car for that money! I need to find a cheaper alternative brake upgrade!
