What is the diameter of the disc, ie 260mm or 290mm, the internal measurement for the handbrake shoes is either 170mm or 190mm.

I think the v3's are a funny one for the rears, are they not still single pots and not 2 pot like the other type R's?

the Brembo discs are 316mm vented...........

the v3 type-R has a fairly unique fitment 290mm SOLID disc with a 190mm h/brake drum to suit the R180 r/diff........they are fairly difficult (and expensive) to sort but i may well be able to arrange for you

Thanks stockcar. I im looking to buy asap. so if you think you can find the right ones or point me in the right direction that would be great, as long as they arnt stupid money then id just get a standard set. Should i still check disc size tomorrow?
