Hello all
I'm on the look out for a set of mk2 sport big brakes for the front of my mk1 ,discs ,calipers ,brackets slider pins bolts etc
I allready have a good rear set thanks to Robert in Swords .
Dont mind reconditioning the calipers if the price is right .
Any help and/or advice would be great ,thanks in advance

Brian, I get options to buy some cars in uk but its only the sport version that has the 275mm brakes ??? Or is it all mk2.5 model in1,8

Hello Rob ,as far as I am aware its the mk2 and mk2.5 SPORT that has the big brake kit ,its like it was an optional extra at the time of purchase .Some jap cars had them as well as I understand it but please dont buy on my say so, someone else on here might know better.
Thanks for getting back to me so quick! Hope all is well with you ,hope to talk to you soon again

They were on the sport versions. Not on RS or 10ae (6 speed)versions.

So is it the models with 16inch wheels ( from new obviously).

Mine are the sport wheels, same as this :


I remember something about all 2003 onwards(mk2.5?) cars had them and all 2001/2002 with the above 16" wheels from new had them (I think!!!).

Yeah looks good. I will keep an eye out for you Brian

My next question is wheather I need 16" wheels because I am planning to stick with my own ones . I hope my 15" ones will work!
Brian

Some 15" wheels won't work, there is a list of what will and what won't somewhere...
oh heres a partial list
Also, I know the 15" 5 spoke NB wheels will fit (if the wheel weights aren't too big).
There is also this option

Thanks lads for the help ,still looking to do this so will have to keep it on the to do list ,this is getting longer by the day!
That last link to flying miata seems like a good solution ,again thanks Steve ,you should run this site!!
