    i have heard that you can put the vtr brakes on a 1.1 and they fit straight on and give a better brake but not to powerful as it is only a 1.1


    so basically all i wanted to know was what do i need

    callipers of what year of car i have a p reg mk1 1.1?

    i have 3 stud wheels so therefore different discs what discs could i use?

    what pads do i run can i just run the cirtroen ones for the vtr?

    also what master cylinder would i use could i put the 23mm 406 coupe one on and do i need to change my resviour as its only small?

    and lastley do i need longer hoses to go to the callipers if so should i just get them of a vtr?

    thanks in advance dec

    or even a cheaper option what master cylinder could i change too to make it better without changing the brakes

    if i changed the mc would i have to use a bigger resivour or not

    youll need to get a 4 stud conversion as you cant get the bigger discs in 3 stud unfortunatly

    as for the mc theres no point putting a bigger mc on smaller brakes
