Basicly want a good front brake setup on my Escort, i already have 300mm discs with wilwood calipers but is quite old now so need to upgrade. Id like the brakes to fit under standard wheels (my old setup didnt, was under 16" wheels) but if i cant then i have 16's for it.
The brakes must be able to handle the Zetec Turbo powering it, so around 350bhp+. It also has rear disc conversion and will be having a floor mounted pedal box.
What you guys think?

what wheels?
std wheels i think you will just squeeze 285 under
i can get my 335 ap 4 pots oner my 16's
i think floor mount is the way forward, i have tried a firewall mounted pedal box and its just an arse to get to work properly

I was hoping you was going to reply Gus, the 16's i have the the Comp FR's in my sig. Yeh im going for an OBP floor mounted one as quite a few people starting to use these.
What ap's you got and where you get them from? Custom made brackets i asume? Solid disc or Bells?
