AP Racing calpiers and 320 odd mm disks from a Vectra ST200, but then I'm being silly coz they cost a fortune.
From what I've seen, read, heard standard Vectra V6 288s and calipers are well up to the job.

i strongly disagree.
the v6 brakes are nowherre near enough to stop the car from high speeds. in my opinion anyway

V6 and Turbo brakes are utter Gash....
If your driving your car hard they will fade VERY fast....
Any 4 pot kit will be fine, I have Reylands on mine under speedlines.
