Just wondering if any one knew of a good brake conversion for a 1.6 xr2i. The standard front discs as we all know are poo and i would like to change them for another set of ford callipers and discs ie mondeo or even escort cossie but i do not have a clue if any of these would fit any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks darren

 

ST170!!!! 300mm discs - drill out the hub carrier bolt holes to 12mm (from 10) and they go straight on apparently!!

 

I may try and find more out about that mate. What callipers would i use though.

 

I have just been told that saph cozzie 4x4 disc and 2wd callipers will fit, is this true or not. Help me please my brakes suck...........

 

ST170 calipers!!!!!

 

If you want to go down the Cossie route I suspect that it's the 4*4 calipers and the 2wd disc's that you need.

That's what I use on my S1 and they're spot on.

Beware of the 2wd calipers as they're 4 pots and are too large to fit easily , certainly within the 15" S1 wheels.

no its 4wd disks and calipers for a fiesta!

the calipers need spacing out 5mm tho and 30mm bolts need to be used to hold them on!

 

www.pumaspeed.co.uk sell 280mm cossie brakes spec kit.Does this spec kit include all accessories?What about rear brake disc conversion,is it good?

Ps.sorry my english is not so good
my car is Fiesta XR2i,autoslalom racecar

 

ive got a problem ive got a sierra rear disc conversion on my s2 rs turbo and i have cross threaded 2 of the wheel bolts. do you know what hub they use with this conversion so i can buy a new one thanx

 

It uses the standard R.S. Turbo hub!!!!!Just has the drum brake removed.Regards Micky
