Which discs/pads for Cosworth calipers.

[Bomber Denton]

I've just got hold of a set of granada 24v Cosworth calipers for the front of the 500. What discs/pads shall i use with them?

Will my existing Goodridge lines bolt straight in?

Well Bomber mines a 95 and i use discs from the RWD Sierra cosworth/RS500 whaletail model 283mm,with 4X2mm spacers to align the calliper body to disc with the cosworth granny bolts,the hub bolt holes have been enlarged by 2mm dont worry there is loads of material to do this,your car may have different hubs so all this may not apply.

Thanks for that, do EBC do the dimpled discs for these?

They certainly do. I considered these when I was looking into the 283mm option. 'bout £120 a pair... ....unless you have contacts. Carl at Sorrensen Road Sports keep these discs - maybe even in stock.

What time is it? It's Homo o'clock!

Nick, you're a bad man.

[Bomber Denton]

Did you use that spring compressor?

[CaptiV8ed]

No, not bad in the least. I do enjoy a funny GIF/Smiley though and the homo o'clock is feckin belting!!!

I've done one side, and it wasn't needed. I pulled the top end of the shock away and it wasn't under any great tension. It came away nice and easy!
