Fury front brakes

apologys if this has been done to death, but i want a quick consensus on after market calipers, discs and pads for a road going 2lt zetec fury, with sierra uprights and independent rear, running drums. I'm thinking 2pot front will be fine, something from wilwood perhaps. I've a .625 front girling cylinder and .75 rear as reccomended by the factory. and will be running a bias bar (fixed for iva purposes.

grateful for any advice, which means i dont have to ring bgh geartech and have chris try and sell me some calipers.

I have hi-specs, they haven't got much feel but work fine. Alot of the other RGB'ers don't rate them and tend to use the Willwoods, butt can't tell you which ones

Oh when do you want this bonnet?

I've got the same pedal set-up as you and I'm running Wilwood Powerlites (from RallyDesign) with Mintex 1144 pads and solid discs.
Very happy with them. Never had fade on track or even going full chat down Alpine passes.

Hi spec, 280 disc on a 13" wheel and ferodo pads here. Seems OK to me.





You'd be surprised how quickly the sales people at B&Q try and assist you after ignoring you for the past 15 minutes when you try and start a chainsaw

Outlaw aka Bremsport aka loads of other things.

Similar to the Wilwoods but came with a pile of bits when I bought my chassis.

Wilwoods are probably the most sensible option.
