Default Brake upgrade advice
Looking to upgrade my front brakes on the xr2,I have 4x4 cossie front calipers which bolt straight onto the hub but the 4x4 disc is just a bit to big at 280mm and doesnt fit,and rs turbo discs are to deep for the 4x4 caliper carrier,anyone no what disc would fit?

cheers steve

The 4wd cossie discs are 278mm and I thought they fitted normally with this mod.

Mk5 RS2000 discs and 4x4 calipers should bolt straight on to the XR2 with no fettling.
