I need a set of 300mm discs for my Hispecs. At the moment I'm using the standard GTi 283mm discs so just need a disc with the same dimensions as the GTi disc except for the diameter obviously. What car can i get these from?

I think I remember reading on the 6 forum something about rover discs. But it was years ago so don't quote me.
You could use the 300mm disc off the newer 307 I think, whatever the kit people use on here, but would need a new bracket made up and the discs are much heavier.

Brackets aren't an issue. They are dealt with. Just need discs

if your caliper fits the 22mm 306 disc, check that it will take a wider one, as anything larger in diameter will be quite a bit thicker.
git6 disc isnt that low and offset, there are far lower especially in the larger sizes, which will cause wheel clearance issues.

6 discs and mintex pads only just fit in mine.
You can buy spacer kits from hi spec to increase the gap between the two calipers.
