I know Zoo do a set of adjustable bottom arms that will suit my mk6 Rs 2000, but i was wondering what benefits these will have? Would they be harsh for everyday use as i think they are polybushed?
Sorta on this topic as well, but is Zoo able to produce a brake kit incorporating some type of AP calliper that will fit behind the standard mk6 RS 2000 alloy (15"x6") I know AP do a 295mm kit using off the shelf that will fit behind 15"x6" rims, however it will not fit mine as the spokes curve in where the meet the edge of the wheel.
AP kit details
CP5005-8
Competition Brake Kit for Ford Escort RS2000
Technical Information:
Caliper - CP5040 4 POT
Disc - CP5000-510G3, Ř295 x 25mm, 3 grooves, 24 Vane.
Pad - CP2340D51
Wheel 6J X 15" COMPOMOTIVE MTR/SP
Some pics of the wheel with standard brakes -




Any help with the brakes would be great as i view them as an important area of the car to upgrade.

transform front end turn in
front end handling
it wont squrm all over the road under hard braking
neva have to change bushes or rose joints eva again
as for the calipers if there room to offset the disc back and there are not lug mounted you should be fine

Thanks for the reply
How much are the arms? I take they fit straight on? In regards to the brakes, is it a case of someone having to look at them, before a definate answer can be given on what can or indeed cannot be fitted?
