i am looking for any disk convertion kits for my ka as me and my mate are building one for track days and maybe racing. would it be easier to just replace the full axle or is there kits?

cheers

 

There's loads of ford stuff that will fit on bigger brake wise, I wouldn't even worry about the rear as drums will give you plenty enough especially on a lightened track car, losing "weight" from the rear wheels will mean no need to do much here.
The front should be dead easy, wheel size will be your biggest determining factor, remembering bigger wheels tyres don't always equal better handling grip, there's even 4 pots you can get to go under 13" wheels so won't be a problem, should be able to use stuff from other fords such as fiesta etc.

i have bigger brakes for the front but i am putting a 2.0 zvh turbo into it or try to lol if not well just stick with the 1.6 rs turbo engine, thats why i wanna make sure i can stop :P

 

my mate had a 2.0 ka runnin omex management (fast ford featured). fully stripped out with 2 bucket seats. he had wilwood's on the front and standard drums on the back, iv neva bin in a car that stopped so good. just upgrading the front will be fine mate for what you using it for!
