Yes. The V8 brake pads and discs fit the D3. You get in the discs, pads and new carriers in the kit from AF.
I have only done the front at this point but if you do the tears you need new callipers also, and they come in the kit they supply.

I've recently done this upgrade on mine and can confirm that it makes a worthwhile difference. My discs were quite worn so I decided to upgrade rather than just fit the standard sizes, I will definitely do the same when the rears are worn.

Its worth doing if you are going to replace the discs and pads anyway.
Its a straight forward job to do and as you are replacing the caliper sliders you know you wont have binding brakes. Its a good time to check and adjust the hand brake shoes as well.
They are big heavy discs and i would advise bedding them in properly before any heavy braking

Hi all, was thinking of upgrading mine as well with the Delphi kit from AF. Would anyone recommend replacing the the callipers and hoses?
