Looks fantastic!

I see that you have done an similar upgrade solution as I have done on my 80q by the front brakes, but i used this setup.

Citroën C8/Peugot 807 V6 Brembo front calipers (44/40mm pistons)
but instead I used front discs from Citroën C4 Picasso (302 mm x 26 mm) modified with re-drilled bolt holes from 13 mm to 15 mm and centre hole from 66 to 68.1 mm.

I used these ones and mounted them on the wrong side (In between the brake disc and the hub)



What car model do your front discs come from that you are using and have you made your own brake adapters?

I´m also interested in the brake conversion. Why didn´t you guys choose the focus rs mk1 discs and Porsche calipers? Well that was my future plan, so I´m interested in possible solutions.

i've used ford focus st170 front disc 300mm(4x108) for my rear brake upgrade and in the front custom 330mm disc with 8 piston calipers from k-sport under 17' wheels,not doable with 15' rims

Very good and cheap. I had two problems, I bough the calipers (very cheap and rebuilt) before thinking about the set up and my hubs will be redrilled to 4x100 because I found a bargain 9x16 Azev...so I need to do a custom carrier

I fit bmw 7 calipers and fiat punto abarth discs 305x28, and the rear set up is S4 calipers with seat ibiza III front discs 280x22

Big calipers mate for this disc

All depends about your rims room .... the easy and cheap way it's to use the coupe quattro 20v hub and suspension, you can use the s2 set up and there are a lot of stuff.

[sandman1111]

Well I have b4 chassis, but also 4x108. Changing hubs does not sound very cheap, bearing cost quite a lot. In future it is going to be track oriented so the brakes need to be good.
Right now I'm actually thinking BMW e28 calipers and focus rs discs.

A coupe quattro 20v road train isn't expensive mate. Subframe, antiroll bar, control arms, hubs and suspension from a scrap maybe 300€ and you will have a lot brake stuff for the front and for the rear there are at least two options and also 4 pots calipers with hidraulic hand brake (my friend Rocco had it). You only need to redrill the brake discs to 4x108

[sandman1111]

Well I got a b4 competition chassis. Basically everything is the same exept control arms, hubs, shocks and brakes. Rear is ofc different than coupe.

Edit: brakes need to be better than those 2 pots 20v had.

Coupe quattro 20v has the same front brakes than S2, girling 60, so you can use same after market brakes...like Rs2 set up, 6 pots, 8 pots...

For the rear you can't use coupe quattro road train...

[Simons]

Also on my early days when I had a coupe 2.2E 10v FWD, I fit the coupe quattro 20v front brakes, plug&play

[Simons]

Check your front brakes because you may also use S2 aftermaket brakes

[sandman1111]

No my brakes are stock Competition. 1 pot and 280 disc.

[Simons]

yes, and my coupe 2.2 also had 1pot, but the carrier has the same bolt carrier distance to fit the girling 60 without any mod

[Simons]

Girling 54 had

[sandman1111]

Ah yes I´m sure they are direct bolt on. I´m not sure if going for aftermarket brake upgrade is good, because it costs mental money. It is a lot cheaper to adapt something myself. Especially when I have drawings for E28 brake upgrade adapter, and E28 calipers are something like 50 euros. OFC they need stainless pistons, because stock ones are from some composite material that likes to overheat. Focus RS discs are about 100 Euros, and then only need brake lines. Should be enought stopping power for very little money.

[Simons]

Yes it's cheap...but sometimes at the end won't be cheap because you need to make a custom carriers for your calipers
