Do you mean Ford Sierra, Ford Escort, Ford Cortina....?

There are several options, depending upon what you want, and how much you want to spend!

What is the reason - are your current brakes not locking up, or are you trying to shed unsprung weight?

Names to look for: Wilwood and Hi-Spec for callipers...

Do you get brake fade?
Do you find that the brakes just don't inspire confidence?
If the answer is yes then there are more brake upgrades than you can shake a stick at. Starting with better pads, then multi piston calipers and bigger discs.
If the answer is no then leave well alone
