Club wise get along to .. www.rs2000-16v.co.uk
Alot of usefull info on there and some nice 2000 for sale...
Just upgraded my brakes
This is the std set up caliper and disc..
And this is the st170 set up a massive difference in braking power..To fit them is dead easy.Drill the std Holes in the hub out to 12mm and fit some shorter bolts.Thats it...I added some Goodridge hoses too,the rs2000 mk5 ones fit the caliper fine but if you have the mk6 escort fit the mk6 goodridge hoses..,,,I ordered the new discs off ebay Mintex discs and pads all in £80
Def worth doing if you can find the calipers..[

Hello Ladies & Gents..
Newbie here , had my RS for nearly a year and i can honestly say it's the best car i have ever owned.. cant fault it except for everything packing up on me at some point lol..
She's pretty much standard except for K&N 57i, 3'' Magnex & wrapped exhaust manifold..
Cheers - Phil
