The kit is the same for the 2wd, but you need to get a hold of 4x4 calipers (the discs are vented).

It's for my Dad Sapphy! Neither me or him really care how nice they look as long as they work and don't look too scruffy!

Yes, but you need 4x4 rear calipers and to already have a rear disc conversion and it MUST be done in conjunction with 330mm front discs or the car will be horrendously over-braked at the rear.

Oh yeah, wouldn't do the rears without having AP's up front. I was just thinking of looks really, with big monster brakes at the front, and then puny rears. I could always turn the biasing down
I wouldn't NEED 4x4 calipers though would I? Couldn't I just get the 2wd stuff you offered the other bloke?

Yep, but if you had to get calipers anyway, thought you would be getting the 4x4 ones - but yes, probably more suitable on your car anyway

Fucking ace!
Does that mean I could get rid of my bracket I have at the moment to get these on? As I dont really want a bracket on a bracket.

You could, but it would have to be custom made, or it would have to be a bracket on a bracket...
