Hi chaps, are the front discs for my BB4 (JDM) the same as the ones for a UKDM 2.2L car?

Was gonna order some from Opie Oils but they don't list UKDM.

Easy enough, retaining screws on the discs can be a pain tho.

Almost an essential piece of kit. Wasted far too long on those damn screws before I got one

Make sure you have a way of pushing the caliper piston back in, a caliper winding tool, a large adjustable set of pliers or a big G-clamp

Other than that should should be fine with regular tools.
