WTD: Brake upgrade for my Striker
budha - 30/6/20 at 07:57 PM

I still have the old standard equipment (solid disks and M16 calipers). Would consider anything better from Hispec M16 calipers or a Wilwood Midilite conversion kit. Calipers must be sealed and I would prefer solid disks.
Edit: did some research and prefer solid disks

Thanks
Marc

Before you spend lots of money what engine are you running if you haven’t got mintex 1144 pads there very good also fit braided Hoses this with solid discs and m16 calipers works very well also change the brake fluid rear brakes brake drums are fine make the brakes are correctly adjusted and all working ok hand brake with drums is normally excellent I could lock my rear wheels up at 60/70 mph if I pulled the h brake up

Ian, thanks for your reply. I am running a Zetec on throttle bodies.
Nevertheless I will try out the mintex pads.
Thank you for the hint!

I have several sets of Wilwood’s available. I have midlites and dynapro units new and used although only have the dynapro’s as new. The midilights are for solid discs and the dynapro’s are for vented. I also have pads to go with. Thanks,
