No confusion PR - You have answered my question above - thanks!
Everything makes sense now
The "330mm" calipers that come on GT 3.2v6 are the same as those on the newer 156 GTAs and you have confrimed that these look like mine.
The discs on my car are the upgraded Autodelta "GTA High Performance cross drilled dics". BTW these discs work very well so far.
What had confused things slightly is that I think a few of us misunderstood AlfaDublins post to say that his brakes were the upgraded ones. I was pretty sure that I had the GT 3.2v6 brakes but wasn't sure after AlfaDublins post, but now I'm sure again
I think these brakes overall are awesome, especially if you have upgraded braided brake pipes you get really excellent pedal feel which really helps in using all this stopping power in a controlled manner.
I haven't seen the four plumes of smoke from each corner of my car after many hot laps with these - unlike with the warp prone standard 305mm discs..
I got the rear discs upgraded too (same size as originals), and these cross drilled discs definitely make a difference.
BTW AlfaDublin, I'm sure your front discs/calipers are more than sufficient given that your car is a lot lighter than a 156 GTA, especially since you stripped it!
Cheers,
TB
