[davido140]

can you fit bigger / better brakes than the OEM kit to a 2000 tuscan?

Im, just asking looking at the same thing

Check these out, look cool http://www.tvrcarparts.com/pages/partdetail.asp?id...

or you can put spaces on the hubs and use later S spec 322mm discs, or get some custom 330mm or 345mm discs and spacers made using existing calipers im looking into both right now.

oooooh nice. Will be a couple of months before I can afford those, very very nice though.

If you dont mind let me know which route you decide to take,

I consulted Joolz at Trackcar Solutions and ended up with the biggest fek off kit that would fit under 18"'s. They are rotors with separate bells.

I fitted EBC reds and the beast now stops properly.

Tbh they dont look that huge, but maybe its just the darkness of the photo? WHat rotor are they and the std ap calipers still I take it?

Std AP 4 pots (CP5200s, later CP6600s) will take up to a 330 mm disc, the limit being the internal radius of the caliper. A 330mm disc and caliper goes comfortably under the RL7s on my Cerb. A 355mm disc looks like it would fit easily too, but I'm not sure the calipers required would (AP 6 pots). Under an 18" wheel (some at least) you could go stupidly large, but I doubt you'd need to.

Think they were 335mm from memory.
