A quick question to anyone running big brakes on a s1/2 erst, Did you upgrade the master cylinder??
Heard using the mondeo v6 servo and cylinder is a popular upgrade??
Cheers

 

Mine......



330mm AP's with Brembo 4-pots, standard 25mm Master Cylinder. No problems.

 

Do the AP discs go straight on to the Brembo 4 pots without any hassle?

 

i uprated to a s2 item on my s1 as the s1 one is poxy

 

they look sweet, also same wheels ive just bought, did you any issues fitting the brakes behind them?????

Whats the pedal feel like mate???

Cheers m8y

 

They were an absolute bitch to fit. Brackets and bells were custom made (my design). 16" wheels really aren't a good idea with 330's, there is only 2-3mm between the caliper and the wheel in places (and that was with some material planed off the caliper!!).

Pedal feel is OK. Not perfect, but I think that's got more to do with other inadequacies in the system.

My brake system has been entirely repiped too, more conventionally, with a Bias valve in it too.

 

How wide are your wheels/tyres christian?
not an off the shelf conversion then

 

7x16" with 195/45/16's when I did the conversion, although I now have 205/45/16's.

Caliper clearance to the inner face of the wheel is OK, but it's the diameter of the whole brake set-up that is the problem. 16's just aren't really big enough. My wheels are ruined on the inside, where stones get caught between the caliper and the wheel!!

 

It really looks like you have squeezed them in there!
Makes my standards look like the really should be on the back!
