Wilwood brake upgrade

Looking at upgrading the standard mk3 cortina front brake callers guys for a nice set of Wilwoods. Now I've read somewhere that adaptors are needed is this true?

I'm looking on rally design and they sell2 complete kits shown in the links below,

http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=3934

I'm guessing he difference between the 2 kits is that one uses a solid disc and one uses a vented one?


Do they both give good results?


Any help and advice is much appreciated.

Both kits are described as being cortina/westfield firmest so will include the correct bracketry.
