Hi rick308.
The disc rotor will go straight on, because the bearings are the same. Unfortuneately the caliper won't line up on the HT stub.
Would be much easier to use HQ-WB brakes, everything fits, but you then use HQ-WB wheels not Commodore.

For the diff question I believe the HT booster and master cylinder will have no problems with the Commodore rear calipers. You just need to use the correct master cylinder and modify it accordingly to operate the rear discs - talk to a brake specialist ab |

Not sure about the HT boosters, but the only difference between the HZ and WB boosters is the front half of the booster on the WB has the mounts for the master cylinder at a different angle to suit the different master cylinder used on the WB model.

Hi Guys.
The only reason I didn't mention stud pattern is that the car was going to have that anyway.
HQ fronts with HT rears or Commodore fronts with HT rears, they're still different, front to rear.
As rick308 said, he is yet to pick a stud pat |
