I need to clean my garage a bit. I have a set of 2002 rear discs and calipers with pads. The discs are in great condition and don't have any lip, the calipers would be a great upgrade for an early car. Free for collection or happy to post them at your expense

Sorry to be a downer but I don't think you can put the ABS callipers on a non ABS car. Well maybe you could physically do it but the bias would be all wrong and you'd probably end up backwards into a hedge. Only real options on the early cars is the 40mm upgrade or a full big brake kit which importantly does something major to the front aswell.

Not sure how big is the rear caliper piston but I think it's 40 mm on the ABS cars. I can measure it tomorrow. To be honest no idea about the braking bias, as I said, they are for free so if somebody is brave to try... smile

yup, we already exchanged emails so will be bringing the parts with me...really curious to find out if there is any hp gain with the headers/cats...I hope 400 miles is enough for the ECU to pick up the mods and adjust a bit

I've not tested mine since the De-cat.
