I know the ST170 brakes have been used as an upgrade on MK3 Fiestas, but
not heard of it being done on a MK2. That said if you want them to fit
badly enough I'm sure a way can be found. I would guess the easiest way
would be making a spacer to relocate the calliper so that everything just
bolts in place. Would having the calliper rotated a few degrees in either
direction adversely affect them? I'm guessing not.
Regards,
Steve

Good Morning All,
Afraid that the old Magpie tendencies surfaced at the weekend and I now
find myself the owner of a set of hubs, discs and calipers for a Focus
ST170. (well, they were cheap..!)
The idea being to fit them to the 2+2 if possible, and I wondered if anyone
had done anything similar?
The front discs are 300mm, and the calipers have the standard 90mm bolt
spacing. however the holes in the lugs on the hub are 70mm from the hub
centre on the 2+2 (standard XR2 hubs) and 80mm on the ST170.
That leaves me with a few options:
1) make up some adaptor plates to fit them (doesn't look promising due to
lack of space)
2) Fit smaller discs (say 280mm) which would still be significantly bigger
than the XR2 ones, or
3) Use different calipers?
The rear hubs have a 4-bolt fitting to the axle. I haven't checked if it is
the same as the Fiesta pattern, but, to be honest, I'm less bothered with
them, as I don't want to be over-braked at the rear. Still interesting to
know if anyone has fitted them, though.
It's not a top-priority job, but any information would be useful, please?
Thank you
Dave.
