    The 285mm Discs (Ktec Big Brake kit) but which car?!

    Hi,

    I have this conversion, if i wnt to replace the discs in the future im unsure of where to order them from (not through Ktec lol!)

    I know they are from a Renault 21, but which model?

    The TXI? if so according to some brake parts website, the 285mm discs are 5 stud :S:S

    I thought it was TXE?

    Any motorfactors will be able to match them in their catalogues anyway....

    You need TXI (2.0 12V model) discs which are 4 stud, 5 stud are for Turbo. Other models have smaller discs.

    Hi,

    If you need to replace the pads, would they also need to be from the same car?

    Thanks.

    Oh right, so even though the KTR kit uses extended carriers, normal Williams pads will still fit?

    Do extended carriers just let you fit a bigger disc?

    Thanks.
