Big BRAKE 205 To 307 Conversion Help

[RummyonFire 2]

I use standard 1.9 GTI front set up in my 6' powered car. I fully rebuilt them from scratch new seals etc, new lines and new 1.9 master cylinder and they are bloody good brakes! The guy at the MOT station even commented on how good they were for a 205

 

If I ran 15' wheels then I probably would run bigger brakes, however my 1.9's are more than up to the job

 

I think im going to do the above i like the idea of increased stopping and if im going to go new then an upgrade was in consideration but its not going to be a track car and im not the kind of driver to floor it (often)

I found the 1900 brakes with my 6 engine was crap for tarmac rallying !

you must be hard on your brakes then! or use the wrong pads.

Some of the stages we use you need to brake hard as some of the corners are very tight and you need to change direction very quick !
