Can somebody please confirm that all the MK Indy kits use sierra uprights?
I have a 2003 model and i am just going to order the wilwood powerlight brakes but i am not sure if they use sierra or cortina?
i think its sierra, can someone confirm?
Thanks

all the Indy's do use the Sierra ones, Corthina ones were for the locost version
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

Depends why you want the calipers 
They WON'T make the car stop quicker
They WILL save some weight
They WILL look nicer

necessary. Have tried emailing MK but not had a reply

They taper reamer out the lower bush in the upright so that it fits the Maxi bottom ball joint.It is something you could get done local at some sort
of engineering company,if you take along your uprights and your ball joints to them,or just wait until the next time you visit MK and get them to do
it as its free service as part of your kit

does this still count if I didn't buy the kit direct but 2nd hand as a part built?

I am sure if you ask them they would,its only a 2 minute job,the guy you bought the kit off should have brought his uprights along and had them done
when he collected his kit,so you will have no problems with the MK lads,you will find them very obliging
