Wilwood brake upgrade
J222jra - 3/5/13 at 05:15 PM

Looking at upgrading the standard mk3 cortina front brake callers guys for a nice set of Wilwoods. Now I've read somewhere that adaptors are needed is this true?

I'm looking on rally design and they sell2 complete kits shown in the links below,

I'm guessing he difference between the 2 kits is that one uses a solid disc and one uses a vented one?


Do they both give good results?


Any help and advice is much appreciated.

Do you know if theyre a direct replacement for the standard cortina calipers?

Both kits are described as being cortina/westfield firmest so will include the correct bracketry.

If your going to Stoneleigh they normally have a stand at the show and will give you any advice you need and possibly have brake kits etc on offer

Does anyone know the thread size for the brake pipes that wilwood use?
