This is in my project thread but someone may be interested who dont look in there

Cling film over reservoir to help prevent fluid escaping when i remove the brake hoses



Loosening the brake hose



Removing old caliper carrier bolts



Caliper removed



Old caliper cable tied in place



Needed to drill these holes out to 12.5mm.



Drilling using plenty of WD40 as cooling agent.



Now holes big enough to fit new 15mm caliper carrier bolts through.



Disc on



Caliper and disc on



New caliper carrier bolts going on



Tightening slide pin bolts



Halfway done got caught in rain so nicked my mums sun brolly as they are away at the moment so cant moan at me



Done other side, bled brakes and pics of them on











got to say they are really good now, no fade at all and get that feeling in my head that me and ojc got on the braking test at Millbrook neck snapping

Excellent mod for just around 110 all in, that includes renewing all seals etc of the calipers!

Nice - and bargain price too!

Not much room left between the wheel and caliper now

Any plans to upgrade rear brakes? Or no real need to?

I was also wrong, mk1s are 278mm. Do the later ones not need any other modifications other than drilling the carriers? When we fitted st24s to my brothers mk4 fiesta the carrier sat roughly 5mm out so we had to put a spacer behind each disc until he got the carriers machined down.

I don't wish to cause you offence at a time that you are experiencing some kind of internet based reward system, but you clearly didn't fit those brakes.

...and wait a fucking minute.

You paid that Jays bird for 100 latex gloves to use when working on your car that you aren't using, again just proof that you only contacted her as an excuse to try and bed another woman from CorsaSport, you and your sly internet games are being taken to another level lately.
