Well worth the wait these. 320mm they use the std 4x4 caliper.

I dont have personal experience of this kit - but yes it will make a difference. - just by applying the laws of physics ... move the caliper further from the centre point = better braking - think leverage. Obv not as good as say 2 or 4pot rears, but has the advantage of retaining the handbrake on the caliper.
Pop a set of decent pads in and away you go.

I stayed std but vented as a lot of the time putting as mentioned above 2 or 4 pots on can make the rear brake too well and your end up putting a bias valve in. I'm putting one in anyway to be sure as the p100 is light on the ass end.

What size wheels do these need? I wonder if my 16 inch comps would cover them.

got my new rear bells and rotors-20140725_165333-cropped.jpg

These are my 300mm rears on my 2wd sapp, had them on since National Day & are awesome.
I had up graded the 2wd rears to 4x4 vented grooved rears but have had them glowing & gone purple after being on track but these haven't got that hot maybe due to larger area to disperse the heat.

I bought some rotors off of ebay and they were pretty cheap, they warped after a few months, then I found LUK Schaffer Brake rotors on sportsbrakerotors and I have couldn’t be happier.

I got a set of BLACK XD Brakes and installed them on Ford Sierra Cosworth and they're simply amazing.
