I use Series 2 Escort Turbo calipers with MK5 ZS discs. I was using MK5 RS2000 discs, but they're a lot more expensive! The ZS ones are 2mm thinner, but work fine. You can use the entire ZS setup if you like, the pistons are slightly smaller so will probably give a slightly better pedal, but with marginally less braking power. I have a feeling the 260mm MK6 Fiesta brakes will fit straight on, but I haven't looked into yet - I believe the brake discs are the same as the 260mm MK5 and Puma ones. The complete MK5/6 RS2000 and 130PS XR3i brake setups will also fit. There's probably more, but all should fit under 14" MK3 Fiesta wheels without issue :-)
