Pretty much, couldn't tell you about the part number of the caliper though as I've got no idea Get some Ferodo Ds2500 pads for them from camskill, you'll find that decent pads for the wilwoods are a shitload cheaper than for std calipers

The smaller wilwood kits are by far and away the best value brake kit for the money. Proven reliable and proven to not fade. No dust seals doesnt seem to be an issue either.
On a road car, i still dont think you can beat the standard set up though. Nice pedal feel, and if you change the pad you wont get any fade.
Why not just grab a set of calipers, fit a larger disk, then make up a bracket to hold the caliper in the right place, thats what Ive done on a few of my cars, far cheaper than buying specific kits and doesnt require any tools beyond a drill a saw and some files etc
Ps
This was last setup I did that way, had some old willwood disks lieing around, and got some tarox calipers secondhand for a fraction of their new cost:
If you use cosworth disks on a clio and just redrill them to 4*100 they are a great size for going under 15" rims and they sit way further inboard so it gives you loads of space for the calipers.
Believe me the only tools you want to be putting in my hands are rubber ones
I went to hire a chainsaw the other day to cut some tree's and they refused to hire me one. If I had of gotton hold of it I would have cut all the tree's in my neighbourhood down with it. I love destruction
Seriously though I will look around for something to just bolt on. My standard calipers are fubar anyhow and I couldnt be arsed getting a service kit or buying oe which are quite expensive.

Thanks Jamie. I will give him a shout one of these days.
But here's a table I picked up from our french cousins..
Standard Setup for day to day or weekend driving using Dot 4.
Front disks Valeo => 186208
Front Pads Valeo => 598002
Rear disks Valeo => 197119
Rear Pads Valeo => 598158
Second Setup for the more spirited drivers amongst you using Dot 5.1 and braided hose's.
Front disks Brembo Max => 09.5802.76
Pads Ferodo DS2500 => FCP845
Rear Disks Brembo => 08.5833.10
Rear Pads Ferodo DS2500 => FCP881
And the third for flat out or circuit days, all components refreshed, Goodridge hoses, and "Motul RBF600",
Front disks Bratex Groupe N => TFS.2059
Pads Ferodo DS3000 => 1PFET845
Rear disks Bratex Groupe N => TFS.2061
Rear pads. Ferodo DS3000 => 1PFET558
I suppose you could play with different pads.
Good bad indifferent?
really? I want some :DOriginally Posted by Jamie Summers
So when ordering you need to specify the Disc Width as shown here..

As the standard disk on the clio is 20.6mm I take it that is the caliper to go for?
Unsure because in a previous group buy they went for 6805 which is 25.4mm disk width?
I would of thought for ours we would go for a 6806?
