Hi all,

Been thinking about moving to 10" wheels and fiesta caliper conversion looks most cost effective!

I've seen plenty of calipers at my local breakers on fiesta's but which year are the ones i need?

Cheers Matt

That makes sence about the Ka, as it is basically a Mk1 fiesta floor pan with a funky (debatable) body.

Ahh ok il have a look at the breakers then so i guess the calipers from an N Reg fiesta are no good then?

As there are plenty of those and all calipers look the same!

I'l have a look also at a breakers at the Ka calipers to see if they are the same

On the subject of the KA, while at the rolling road the other day we saw a auto cross KA, spaceframe with 3.5 V6 lump in , over 300 nanas, on a dog box...

bit mental *happy*

do you need to modify the hubs at all to fit these? They surely aren't just a straight swap?
