Hi Guys,

I have been trying to find information on the brembo upgrade. Has anybody fitted them on here? If so what is involved? Can you use standard wheels? Do the MK1 Focus RS calipers fit? Do you have to use spacers? If so what size? Will standard braided lines fit or would I have to change them to the Brembo fitment?

Cheers,

Chris

This is all part of a larger master plan then I assume?

If I'm right another member on here will be quite happy - I just wish you'd have done it sooner so I could have benefited instead!!!

Spoke to a lad recently.

Yes the callipers do fit, although you need a bracket to adapt and apparenty you nee to grind a small amount off the caliper a it fouls on the hub

Yes they do fit behind the standard wheels although i "think" you need a 15mm spacer on the wheels

Not sure of braided hose size.

Also it was will (kreaper) who had brembos fitted before.

you need focus rs to fiesta st lines, they are made and sold on ebay i think

i am thinking of fitting evo brembos to mine in the new year...

£800 for my brembos and I will buy myself some ksports

Or get my aps on eBay! New discs needed soon but still going cheap ATM!

I'm in process of doing this ATM as my brakes are goosed now!
If you keeping standard wheel you need 15mm spacers yes although people have got away with 12mm I belive!

Best getting new lines with the banjo fitted also your need the brembo bracket!

What's this ???? tell us tell us??????

I am just a little worried about the impact 15mm spacers will have on the front wheel bearings that is all??
