I'm looking at uprating my front brakes, I've been looking at doing the 300mm conversion using the Mk3 Mondeo front calipers with the focus st170 disks. I was just wondering if any of you had already done this and what it is like if so?

 

Just done this recently.
You get a bite more bite under braking. Its not neck braking, but it is noticeable. Nice easy conversion as well, providing you are not running std rst wheels.

 

Grind em down a bit and they will fit under standard rims.

 

Been running this for a couple of years now and it's a big improvement, a MC and servo from a MK3 Mondeo will sharpen them up even more.

 

Or better still..... one from a Sport Ka

 

Why is that better mate?

 

Larger MS bore size mate

 

Oh! Do you know what size they actually are (Ka and Mondeo)? Cheers!

 

I'll try and find out but if you already have the mondeo one, it won't be worth the effort upgrading to the ka one.

 

i have a set of mondeo calipers if youre interested mate

 

How much you after for them mate?

 

I was just wondering... Is the mondeo mk.3 calipers and carriers a stright fit to the rs turbo, when using the fokus st170 discs?

 

Need a spacer between the Hub and caliper

 

Is the sport ka servo conversion easy to do on the series 2?

 

I think I need to upgrade my MC and servo I've already removed my abs will the 1.6 Ka still be ok to upgrade from?

 

Is the ka or mk3 mondeo servo and ms a bolt on part part or do you have to modify anything to get it to fit
