Looking to replace the rear calipers definitely, all 4 perhaps. Any suggestions?

Thanks, as you say not cheap smile It may come to that though.

Losing track, but all the VT2 sent over there had Harrops on them?
If it has Harrops on it, Harrop sell rebuild kits.

If it has the PBR 330mm front 315mm on the back which HSV used on other cars, they are normally easier to get hold as there were more cars built with this stuff fitted.

Thanks, they do indeed sell rebuild kits. Can't order off the website as no postage info available. Awaiting an email...

They are normally pretty good at answering emails. Could try them on faceplant? failing that, maybe phone them, 10 hours ahead in Melbourne. Goes to 11, the following weekend.

Looks like I have sourced a set. Harrop are good at answering emails, now to get the rebuild kits.

Hi, I may still need a set after all. Do we know if these will fit my GTS?

Yes, they will bolt on, they are the 330mm front 315mm back, I was referring to.
Regurgitating the pdf here! They were fitted to the HSV Clubsport R8 as standard in Oz. (same car as the HSV GTS in the UK)
The Harrop stuff was the premium system which was an option over here on the R8, but standard on the SV99 (fancier R8) and the HSV GTS (HSV GTS-R in the UK)
