Brembo brakes

Forum: 

Anyone ever fitted the Brembo calipers and discs from a Fiat Coupe turbo to the front of a Materia?

Should work/fit and just about to have a go but if its been done before it would make my life easier!

Thanks

interesting, is centre bore the same size on the disc/hub & do caliper mtg holes line up,will theflexi fit both ends,and is disc the same width in total as original, if not it may foul at the back
finally is disc going to be ok when wheel fitted ( clearance if disc is bigger diameter).
please let me know how it goes if you do it, if its a no go as running gear is mainly toyota i,d
look there for bigger brake conversion, good luck,

I've put BC Coilovers on mine and I'm currently in the process of smoothing down some interior trim parts to have hydro dipped.
Any pictures of yours Mat?

i,l take some pics & post them soon, delay in fitting springs as i ordered a pair of drop links
& it took ages to get them as customs held on to them for weeks & now the weather is cack
again, how much were the bc coilovers, have you fitted a full set Unknw
keep posting, m mat.

Coilovers

Toes full set of BC's fitted. It's an easy fit. They were 2nd hand from eBay so cost me around £350 I think. They're £650 new.
I put them in and then a few weeks later I adjusted them once they'd bedded in. Not so low now though as when I have passengers they were too low for speed humps.
Top of wheel arch to ground is 60cm now and quite a good compromise. Wish I could go lower but I'd be looking at air ride for that.
