I have managed to source these for 110 + vat,<br>does anybody know :<br>Where I can get an exhange(reconditioned) pair and for how much?<br>What spacers I will need?<br>What discs and pads I can use?<br>Everybody I've spoken to has different ideas.<br>Someone even told me you would have to drill out new holes (turbotouch), I don't think so.

Don't buy them !!!<br><br>The 4 pots do not work well with a FRST master cylinder - you will have to push the pedal very hard<br><br>Get a set of 2 pots from an escort cossie or a 4x4 cossie / sapphire<br><br>Just pump out the cylinders with an air line, remove the rubbers and clean them up - then fit new rubbers<br><br>G.

Check with Rob to see if you can get another master cylinder - It may be worth selling them £110 was cheap you should get more for them.<br><br>G.

Its alright, the breakers have agreed to take them back, i told them that they were in bad condition, which might not be true, but they look like they needed to be completely reconditioned. Anyway sourced some escort cosworth 2 pot calipers, and paid 75 each + 8.50 delivery, and there supposed to be in good nick. So problem solved, your a life saver mike!<br>I thought the fiesta master cylinder could handle the conversion, because I read it somewhere, but I did have my reservations. <br>the 4 pot were 110 + vat, so basically 135 with delivery, so these are not too much more.
