Hi guys.
Could be interested in a brake kit I've found, but if I can, a few questions for those who know....
I have an Escort RS turbo currently running cossie 2wd 4 pot calipers and 4x4 discs. To make these fit I had to machine 4mm (I think) off the back of the caliper and a few other bits.
If I were to purchase this kit could I just have these calipers machined in the same way and bolt them on as a direct replacement to what I have? Hopefully I can as it'd make for a great upgrade for a sensible price... AP etc just cost a bomb!! Link for the kit:-

Any guidance would be great![Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
Cheers.

Running 17" on it. Not the ideal I kniw, but a sucker for the look ![Wink](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
So I'll be able to whip off what I've got and then pop these on? (After machining the caliper of course).
