Default Brake Conversion,help required?

Looking for someone that can tell me if Uprated 4 pots with big discs that were bought for and are on a s2 RST will fit on to a mk2 xr2?

Hey Keith long time no see.

Do you have any idea on the disk size and what the calipers are off?

Am I right in thinking that you have 15's on the XR2?

As long as you have the caliper spacers that were on the S2, you'll be sorted m8. You'll need 15" alloys if the discs are bigger than 265mm. It'll all just bolt up no problem.


PS Turbo'd XR2's rule!

Yeah m8, had it at a Crail track day, and once at knockhill. Was having some electrical problems so haven't been risking it. And I'm working on my ship just now, so will be back in June for another go
