Fiat coupe 20v brembos to Pulsar GTI-R

[Russkles]

So I was reading on the internet about how I think possibly some Australian folk/lad used a set of 20v coupe 4 pot brembos with some minor modifications on his R. So i managed so source some for peanuts but... I don't know where to go with it..

Now the caliper bolt position is exactly the same (tested and achieved)

The custom braided lines (I can get them easily made for me so np there)

The main reason for this thread is the disc situation. Has anyone done this and could tell me:

A: what disc did you use ?
B: I think I need extended studs ?

Or

C: shall I just bin the brembos and throw my money at a known brake kit bolt on jobby ?

If you could shed some light on the matter I would apriciate it or possible put a link to a thread where it's been spoken about before?

Thanks

Russ

I'm not 100% sure if this will work with those Brembo's, but I used Clio 182 discs.

Same PCD 4x100 and almost identical hub diameter.

IIRC the discs are 280mm x 24mm

Used 20VT Fiat discs 300mm under GTIR 15's. With AP's though.
Other cheap calipers are the MGTF ones (also made by AP, so they ARE quality)
Have a spare set of these.......

My rally GTIR is on G60 Golf 280mmm discs, same AP calipers, obviously custom brackets..

Piston diameters in the Fiat calipers are a bit big for our master cylinder so will end up with a bit of pedal travel unless you upgrade to the Primera diesel one. Leon Cupra R calipers are a better match.

Ok on that note, there going in the bin and I'll do some more research.

Thanks chaps !
