I found an online spreadsheet which shows that the ST165 twin piston calipers bolt on OK, and you just need to redrill the discs for four-stud fitment.



I realise not all 15" wheels offer the same amount of0 brake clearance

I just felt that the stasdnard brakes

Have PM'd you about your calipers!

I drive pretty hard, so I would rather spend the money now, than refurb the standard brakes, and then spend out again for an upgrade in six months time.

Especially if I do a Mk1.5 swap which is looking pretty tempting!
