I have these:
Front:
STD Rs turbo calibers, greenstuff pads, sierra cosworth 2wd discs, braided hoses. I will sandblast & zinc front calibers too next winter.
Rear:
Sierra cosworth 2wd discs & calibers and std rs turbo brake bias valves properly adjusted, braided hoses.
Now i can say rs turbo has some kind of braking power and i can rely brakes. Stopping power is amazing compared to std items. Will fit under rs turbo standard wheels too.

Hi mate!!
Did you fit sierra cosworth 2wd 283mm Disks with Standards Rs Turbo calipers??
Did you use special brackets for the Standard Rs Turbo Calipers or standard brackets fits ok with sierra cosworth 2wd 283mm Disks??
