Default AP Racing 4 pot 330mm disc kit

Evening folks,

I have a brand new AP 4 pot with 330mm disc kit designed for a Sapphire 4x4 cossie and wondered whether I needed special brackets to fit to a Series 1 Rs Turbo?

Has anyone fitted this kit to their car already?

Can you help - PLEASE

kind regards

Richard

also they will only fit under 17s and up i think mate

The RS uses a disc offset of 58mm while the 4x4 discs are 36mm so you WILL nedd different bells If the discs were for the 2wd you would be ok!

I run AP4 pots which actually came from the series 1 found in this thread :
https://passionford.com/forum/ford-rs-turbo-parts-for-sale/255627-ultimate-spec-s1-for-breaking-list-of-parts-left.html

They came with brackets to mount the calliper

I can not inform you about the offset of the bells
