escort mk5 best value brake upgrade
i'm already gunna bolt an rs2000 rear beam to my mk5 1.4, atm
escort , i was wonderin wot is the best option for the front, i don't wanna spend megga money, n some second hand 4pot 2wd sierra cosworth calipers n disk's have taken my fancy cos the calipers will look nice through 5 spoke compo's
will they bolt on or is there a better option, cheer's for the help lad's, once some cash comes through my project will start to kick off properly n will post some pic's up on the restoration forum, to show how all your advice has helped me out

focus st170 front disks and pads thats what i fitted to mine and they work a treat 300mm so they look big behind 17's
** if you decide to fit these you cannot fit any alloys back on unless they are 17's **

cheer's for the advice lad's sorry haven't replied earlier i'v been stuck in london working
but puttin 300mm rotors on the front would be a big bonus
.. n from ridin my bikes i no how important good brakes can be lol, was just wonderin how hard was it too fit the st170 setup n did you have to get a braket make for the caliper or was it bolt on, n well havin to get 17" compo's to fit over them, i could think of worse thing's to spend my money on lol .. n i had a suspision that i might be pushin the master cylinder so would an rs2000 one cope with 300mm's on the front or would there be a better replacment..
