Alternative to Sierra rear calipers.

I'm in the process of changing from drums to discs (and fitting an LSD) on my MK Indy.
Wanting to keep things cheap.
Has anybody fitted Mondeo rear calipers or mk4 Golf calipers?
What are the options out there?

Cheers.

Hi, I have some Mondeo V6 calipers for 20mm wide ( vented ) discs. From memory they have 34mm pistons, Again from memory Sierra pistons are 38 mm or 43 mm ( Cosworth ). You need to be careful in your selection of calipers/pistons to avoid rear over braking on a seven type car. Lots of threads on this. U2U if interested.

to do to go from drums to discs?

The mx5 set up looks neat.

I guess what I'm asking is, is there a direct replacement for a Sierra rear caliper?

Cheers
