Fairly low budget front disk setup! Whats needed........

[SwirlyE30]

Right.Well it looks like the IS conversion should be going ahead. I cant get hold of my brothers write off now as they wont let us buy it back but i can source everything needed for cheap money.


Seeing as i wont have a car now to replace the rear brakes with (ive only got disks up front) im just going to make the front brakes really good and save up for rear disk conversion.


Basically what will i be looking at .


I thought i might need these things? :


1)New brake hoses

2)New disks (Vented and/or grooved)

3)325 Sport callipers (i was told that these are needed to fit better disks?)

4)Good pads, was thinking Pagid fast road pads

5)Good brake fluid



If anyone can elaborate on that and maybe give me more speicifc options that would be good. Also be nice to know some rough prices or where i can find most parts.


Basically im trying to work out everything that i will need to get so that when it comes to swaping engines over i can do this as well.


I dont have a massive budget, probably a couple ish hundred for this. I know its not much, but im sure i can drastically improve the brakes for that.
