Wilwood clarification

[16v_paddy]

Sorry mate, no idea with the brake hoses I got mine 2nd hand with everything to fit them except the bolts

I run R19 16v hoses on my Wilwoods,they screw into the middle of the calipers at the back,as you can see theres no way they can snap where too short like the Williams ones..



I got mine from Yozzasport years ago as a bundle package with the alloy adapters too,the hubs need to have an angle ground off them to stop the adapters fouling too

Thanks snowman! So nothing special needed, just regular R19 16v hoses work? That's cool, thanks. :D

Thanks for the info about the adapters/hub as well. That shouldn't be too much of a hassle if it needs a bit grinding away. :D

Yep regular R19 16v hoses,no special fitment.

It just a tiny angle you need to grind off,i think ive got a pic somewhere f mine,ill try find it,dont know where youd get the adapters though

Snowman, sorry, I forgot to say. You know how the R19 16v hoses fit the front. I take it the rears are OK as well. i.e. I won't have to mix and match. The whole set of 4 work fine on the Williams?

Just done a little adding up. The Wilwood setup looks to be great value for money (sorry if I'm stating the obvious) lol.

I did have the following setup down in my mind:-

K-Tec Big Brake Conversion - £238.80
Tarox Corsa 114 Pads - £80.58

Total - ~£320.

If you do the Wilwood setup:-

Wilwood Forged Dynalite Caliper - £119.40 (x2)
Poly E pads - £71.40
Clio 1*2 Brembo Max Discs - £45.95

Total - ~£355.

I know what I'm changing too when I eventually get this Williams! Need to stick hoses on that price and adapters. But still, great value.

well unless the rear brake set-up on a Williams is different to a valver the R19 16v rear hoses fit just fine.

Thanks. Last question I promise... when we say R19 16v, what engine size is that and what year model? 1.8 abs? non-abs?

[snowman]

These are the ones i ordered,im not running A.B.S,R19 16v were 1.8,my cars a 94

Think LEIGH-ANNE can supply braided hoses also?
