Saab’s 9-3 Sportcombi: What it Has to Offer?

Saab is trying to bring back its station wagon and its not as if it really did went away but more of just overshadowed by the arrival of the minivans. The Saab’s station wagon will once again try to win back the hearts of its North American families which used to be its avid followers.

Saab the producer of high quality Saab distributor rotors will be introducing its SportCombi which shares resemblance with the 9-3 line. Although not that sporty in appearance but overall it’s not at all a bad looking bus.

In keeping up with the cargo theme it offers limited stowage in the doors and in the central console with sliding lid which other buyers may not find so appealing. The rear is quite spacious and can accommodate full-size cases.

The wraparound design of the dash is stylish but still the interior needs more improvement. Inside the SportCombi you will find a Prestige AM/FM stereo system, with in-dash six-disc CD player and XM satellite radio.

In terms of safety features the SportCombi offers an electronic traction control, stability control, front, side and roof-rail airbags, ABS brakes, active head restraints, a brake-assist system, remote keyless entry, central locking and anti-theft device.

The SportCombi gets its power from the 2.0 liter, DOHC, inline four-cylinder, 210hp turbo engine which is matched to a six-speed manual transmission. Its estimated annual carbon emissions are 4,368 kilograms. Fuel consumption is at 10.8/7.1 liters/100km (city/highway).

Which brake rotors or adaptors do I need to go with my new shimano XTR M975 disc callipers?

I have just bought some Mavic wheels (deemax) with 6 bolt IS. However I also have the Shimano XTR M975 levers and brake calipers. They came with rotors, but they are central lock system. Which rotors can I buy that will fit, or is there an adapter to make my rotors fit (6 bolt IS to center lock adapter)?
Excellent. But when you say "make sure its the right size for your caliper placement, or just adjust the caliper" what should I look out for, or how do I adjust the caliper?

You can buy any rotor (make sure its the right size for your caliper placement, or just adjust the caliper) and it will work fine with your brakes. Just buy a decent one, not a cheap one which will likely cause problems, including poor heat reduction.

I'm sure there will be an adapter (but I can't find one with a quick search), but it would be better to get either new hubs, or new rotors (which is cheaper!)

EDIT: For a bigger rotor, you need the caliper to be further from the hub to accomodate the larger diameter. Basically if you were happy with the braking power of your brakes on your old wheelset, just buy the same size rotors, and they'll fit and work just fine with no adjustment to the calipers.
