Hispec

[SILICONEKID345HP]

I have Hispec four pots with 283 discs ,I`m going to buy the larger brackets and sell the old ones .

I can`t seem to find 300mm discs, only bells which are very expensive.

Does anyone know what 300mm discs fit the setup ?

If you have the necessary clearance inside your rims, you could use the one-piece 324mm Mk1 Focus RS discs - only problem is they are too thick to fit the caliper mouths (28 as opposed to 24mm from memory) - HiSpec will provide you with a set of caliper bridge spacers to widen the span of the calipers or you could talk to me nicely as I have a new set with the longer body bolts to match - no longer needed as I have gone AP Racing with two-piece 330mm rotors

My car is on those Focus RS 324mm one piece discs and callipers, Daz. The disks were about £200 IIRC, Black Diamond 12 groove. They are a standard fit on BMWs, but you will need the early Focus RS version as your car is 4stud, whilst BMs are 5. However, the BMW Brembo callipers are a good fit.

If you want more info, Alun (Classichimi) has done that conversion, as has Dave Byron, so they have all the part numbers etc.

You are still on 17 inch rims aren't you, Daz? Should be no fitting issues

Im on 16" fronts with 205/50/16 which I prefer over the 17" rims .

The plan was to sell the 283mm discs and brackets which are like new and buy a set of brackets direct from hispec .

They only sell those bells , just wanted discs .

You are welcome to try one of your 16 inch fronts on my car to see if 324s are viable. I will measure the clearance on my 17s for you, though I have different callipers to the commonly available Brembos

I cant see them fitting .. I might pop the wheel up ..cheers

Daz,
I'm running 324 MM. and Bembros under my 16 inch estorils with a 5 MM. spacer that corrects the offset. You should be ok mate.

How do I start talking to you nicely ?

You have the discs and brackets to make them fit these callipers.

Or I could sell these and start again with something new .

These are more for 15" wheels.
