Default Xr4i from Ibiza

Hi, I am from ibiza, Spain.

I am restoring a 1992 Ford Sierra XR4i. I decided to sign up in this forum to learn and share knowledge.







I want to improve the power breaking. I would like to know what breaks can fit in my ford.

Thanks

Well Glenn, if you ever come back to ibiza glad you'll make a guided visit.

I am very confused with the brakes, I would improve braking but without great from modifications. We can't do it big modifications, Spain is diferent.

Thats a strange looking xr4i.... mk2 ? ..you dont see many 3door sierras around like that anymore.

you could get some sierra cosworth discs + pads for better stopping power, they're not too expensive.

It's a rare model.

I can change the cosworth discs without changing the calipers, Cosworth disks are bigger no?
