hi ive got some mk3 fiesta calipers from a base spec with solid discs has any one used these for the 10 conversion as fitting them to the hub requires the same mod as the mk2s and they look the same to me these calipers are also fitted to most ka's

I used mk3 callipers on this conversion a few years back. same principle as the mk2s.

Having run both this conversion and the cooper S set up, i'd use the cooper S

I run 1 pot fiesta brakes. They work great.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

I've run this set-up with no problems.



Graham, what master are you using?
I had a yellow band that failed to reliably operate this set-up, could have been a faulty MC though.
I had a girly servoed master and built this in no issues anymore.

Dazed and Confused....

I run:

Yellow tag mc
Mk2 mini rear limit valve
1275gt rear wheel cylinders


This combo has given me a pedal that is right there...I have tried tried the bean can mc but the biggest difference to the peal was using the 1275gt rear wheel cylinder.

also for £50 minisport sell a pair of 7.9 grooved discs which are less hassle than getting new standard discs then having them turned down plus i think it would cost almost as much
