Do you have Torana or HQ stub axles?
Check with UPC if the kit alters the track. The kits based on the VT hubs will push your rims out an extra 8 mm each side.
Hopper Stoppers have a 290 mm kit that retains the Torana track. Hopper Stoppers also have a 290 mm kit that uses the VT hubs and increases the track by 8 mm each side. I think the Hoppers 330 mm kit has the same hub options but it would pay to check.

I am running Torana stub axels , I rang UPC again but was still unable to get anybody that had much of a clue about what they where selling . A friend has now put me onto a local company in Perth called Brake Fabricators WA and I spoke to them today , they are an Hoppers agent but will also custom make to suit . Going to see them on Saturday to see what they can do .

I live in Willetton just around the corner from Brake Fabricators WA. I can show you the Hoppers 290 kit and VN-VR rear discs.
