  1. So I'm building a track 205 I'm currently collecting lots of parts and then I'm hoping to make a build thread, but for now I need more help for buying my brake upgrades this may get a bit confusing but I'm stuck now. I had on the car gti6 calipers and was pretty happy with, but now I'm adding a lot more power and using mostly for track I've decided to go for an upgrade. I don't really want to be spending over £1000 on the AP and I've read some bad things about wilwoods. I managed to pick up some brembo 406 calipers very cheap (with 305mm discs so if anyone wants the discs and doesn't mind driving to collect then you can have the discs) so I was happy to go down that route. But then I found you could use megane and Clio calipers but I've no idea where you can purchase adapter brackets, so I have no idea which caliper option is the better or simpler fit. So if I stay with the 406 calipers I know that I would need xantia 288x28mm discs which are heavy so I started looking for bells and rotors, hi spec seem to do lots of custom sizes and pretty cheap considering. But I don't know what offset I'd require for the bells and what size rotors will fit without catching the caliper or causing a wheel caliper collision. If I go down the megane and Clio brembos also with two piece bells and rotors then again which bell and rotor combo should I go with as the only kits I've seen are on 306 forum and on 16/17 inch wheels so should I guess from this these calipers will not fit under 15s? My wheels are 15 X 7 speedline 2118 et15 from Carl chambers group buy although will be a little while until they arrive, but would like to get the brakes sorted so I can save for the next purchase a shorter rad Many thanks Lee
