as above, is there a kit available? If not what calipers do i need, and where can i get some brackets made up? I'm guessing there will be someone on here thats running wilwoods on 172, bored of the brake fade after 4 or 5 hard goes on the brakes, and there just not upto the job standard to be honest, especially if im going to itb's

and on a clio mk1 they bolt straight up on the 172 disc and fit without further mods not sure if this is the same on 172,s though..

as said the brembo four pots costing a grand new but change hands used around 150/200 quid so are a great cheap upgrade..

worth a go then you reckon? Im guessing id use the 406 v6 pads with them? what about brake hoses?

They come with brembo hc discs. They are £646 and were doing them with free fitting too.
