Thanks Darren, Useful info.
I used the Sierra Cosworth 4x4 discs on my 2+2 until i upgraded to Wilwood
setup.
But, i used Escort RS Turbo calipers and brackets and i had to weld up the 2
caliper carrier mounting holes and redrill them at a different spacing.
Was a bit dubious about the welding on the caliper so i had a proper
engineering company do it.
This sounds much easier.
My setup is now on my Saloon so i may swap out the calipers with the ones
you suggest.
Thanks again,
Jim

Subject: [Quantum Owners] New large disc conversion
I have worked out a large disc conversion for 2+2 and saloon using recent
model parts.you need 15" or larger wheels to fit the 280mm discs!!
The conversion is very simple, needing only two modifications!.
Parts needed.
Discs
Adc1280/dsk3118 or ndb1906.
These are ford ecosport 1.5d 2013 on.
Or you can use nbd207,
these are ford sierra/escort cosworth 4x4, note must be 4x4 as they only
fitted these to that model.
Calipers
I used
2007 volvo s40 300mm.
But these calipers are also fitted to volvo v70, s80, s60 and c70, also ford
focus mk3(11-), some mk2(05-11) and cmax.
BUT they must be from the 300mm disc models!!!
Do NOT get 278mm calipers as they won't work. The caliper mounting has 300
cast into it for identification.
How to fit.
All that is needed is to drill out the holes in the hub to 12.2mm to clear
the caliper bolts which are 12mm(the old fiesta are 10mm)
Thats it!hose fits as normal, discs go straight on and with the hole opened
so do the calipers.
Note, if you use the cosworth disc you need a 5-6mm spacer between the
caliper and hub lug to correct the disc offset.
As usual, use of this information comes with no warranties or liability.
Please check your wheels and other clearance beforehand.
Magazine editor add this to the magazine if you please.
Enjoy and stay safe
