Default low-cost brake upgrades?

Hi,

I'm looking to upgrade the front brakes on me RST. I know about the 2WD Cossie upgrade but just wondered if there are any other options out there i can persue such as Mondeo (or anything else?) as Cossie calipers are either knackered or a high price. Looking to spend about £250 (all in) as my turbo rebuild has eaten into the bakes budget....

Cheers,

mondeo v6 calipers ive heard are the same as the 4x4 cossies, might need a bracket made for them to sit ok. they use 278mm discs adn you can pick them up for peanuts im sure. one of those big disc kits maybe, hi spec?
