Xs / Gti Caliper Issue

[Silky 33 1 Cars]

Hi.

 

I've fitted some parts to my XS today, so I'm running the following

 

1.6 Hubs

1.6 Discs

1.6 Pads

1.6 Pad Carrier

1.6 / XS Caliper

 

When braking there is a knock knock knock knock so I think the calipers I'm using are knackered

 

What I need is to buy some new front Calipers.

 

Using the above disc/hub combo. What's the best Caliper to fit?

Will I need to use the 1.6 pad carrier for the pads because of the wider 1.6 hub/disc offset?

 

I want to use the car for Pugfest so I'm running out of time.

 

All help appreciated. Thanks. Michael.

To add. I've only got 13" steels on at present.

you can use any peugeot/citroen caliper from a 247mm vented setup with your existing dics/hubs.

 

you may struggle to get 13's over some though, but the taller 1.6 disc will help.

So any Caliper from say a 306 DTurbo but with the 1.6 pad carriers? Current ones are bendix with the 5 sided bolt

For the sake of £100 for a pair of new Calipers, I may just buy new
