I did indeed mate. Used the Fiesta Centre kit plus Granda 2.0 rear calipers.
However in all honesty I wouldnt recommend it. They dont provide any additional braking, they space larger wheels out so they hit the arches and they unbalence the car
After fitting them I found the car a little tail happy in the wet!
And last but not least if you are using uprated front calipers you will find after fitting these your brake pedal hardly works!
You need to upgrade to an Escort master brake cylinder.
All the same though, pictures can be found here of the conversion.

reason that it was over braking at the back was prob due to the bias valves having bean played with on the bulkhead (or servo if you used escort ones!) and also that yoyu had green stuff pads on the back! REALLY BAD IDEA!
yeah like he says, they do need the fronts uprating and the servo changing to escort one, but thats a 20/30 min job at most!
will pm ya now all bout it
