Default Brakes

What would you recommend for a good brake setup? I have already brought the Zoo motor sport rear brake conversion. What should I do for the front???

S2 calipers and 2wd cossie discs with the spacer bracket for the caliper!
If you want better, St170 set up, and next up would be focus RS brembos and discs, and then your into AP water cooled 6 pots

I have the same rear kit as you, and 300mm ST170 fronts, they are excellent brakes for the money!

I got calipers, pads, bolts, washers, discs all in the kit mate (bought privately) You could try sending a pm to xfactor - he used to sell these kits.
