RS focus 324mm disks fit under 16" wheels on rsturbo hubs using std calipers (prob fit cos 4x4 calipers as well!)

first pic shows std 260mm disk next to bling ebc rs focus disk

total cost about £200 inc disks

 

They will look nice on the S2 under the MO's

 

Can see these on a lot of S2's now.


Dave.

 

can u pm me some more details on where and who ya got em from pls mate

 

 

Looks good

Wonder if you could use 2wd 4 pots, as I have a set with erst fitment lying around..

 

Tried them on a S1 and they warped within 1 month.

We took up the complaint with EBC who tried to blame everything but the disc, but we eventually got the money back for him.

 

I got 15's

But i'm happy with my 2wd set up................... when i get to use it

And dont you start Tony

 

not running yet then Paul ?

 

No comment.

 

would they fit with AP Princess 4pots ?

 

Is this supposed to be an advert? What if i got my own discs? Is this a new bracket or something? :S

 

as above from rick, are the brackets available seperate and any pics of the brackets??

do you use them yourslef??

thanks

 

up

 

my pal dean made the brackets and bits and peices to my spec.

they are simply steel plates (mine are 10mm but the thickness is not critical) and they move the caliper carrier out 31mm so you have 4 * 10mm holes 90mm apart one way and 31mm apart the other way. they also have a recess to clear the part of the caliper where the piston is.

the gap on the carrier where the disk rotates in is opened by 4mm (easy done with a hack saw) to accomodate the thicker disc. additionally, the caliper has a little bit taken off with a power file to allow the (larger diametre) disk to sit fully in (this would not be required on 17" wheels and prob not even on 16" but i did it on mine.

the disk is spaced from the drive flange by a 1mm shim to ensure clearance from the track rod end gaiter and the carrier is mounted on the bracket using an 11mm standoff.

and no this is not an advert but the guy who did mine has done others and charged for it. he isnt bothered about finding customers and you can make the bits yourself quite easily, i just wanted to share the idea with anyone who was interested cos it seemed like a cheap way to get big brakes.

the setup shown in the pics is my dax rush and makes for a huge improvement in stopping power/pedal effort (car has no servo). not had the car on track since fitting them so cant comment on fading etc
