Piston size is 36.8mm and disc size is 285mmx22mm.

 

Also opinions on these fitting under standard 15'' 205 rims?

which calipers are they? I know some don't have dust/crap seals to cope with road use.

Any any advice on bias valves, and master cylinder setup appreciated lads.

Any any advice on bias valves, and master cylinder setup appreciated lads.

By fitting more effective front brakes (ie. ones that produce the same stopping power with less push on the pedal) you move the brake bias towards the front. A bias valve would allow you to correct that to some degree. Definitely worth fitting one in my opinion.

 

Master cylinder choice is down to you; do you prefer a soft pedal with lots of travel or stiffer pedal with less travel? Most would recommend the latter, and that can that be acheived by fitting the master cylinder from a 406.

my mate had a set of hispec brakes on his turbo'd 106 rallye and they were really good, never had any problems and are pretty well priced
