Think the fronts are a 4 piston caliper with 330mm rotor and the rear is the same as standard but better quality with braided hoses all round.It's the same as the brake upgrade kit that could be purchased back in the day for $2500 from ford when buying new. I paid $1750 for the kit back in 2004/05 from one of our members here who used to own a brake shop in Cairns (cheers bcr01)

Rosie Member 361 Member For: 19y 5m 12d Posted 11/04/12 04:14 AM Posted 11/04/12 04:14 AM anybody knows 4 piston callipers that fits stock 17" wheels?I fitted AP 'Six' spot Callipers to my Wife's XR6T, with a 320mm Rotor from memory.- On standard Ford 17 inch Rims. I took them off my Car when I wanted to upgrade my Callipers and had to change frtom the 17's to 18 inch Rims for the 362mm RotorsThere is a range of AP Six spot Calliper sizes to fit all RimsI 'had' AP Racing 4 spot Callipers, on 300mm Rotors on the back.- On stock 17 inch Rims.So, no problem for AP Six or 4 spot Callipers on 17's!

They are identical to the ford upgrade pack and brake a heap better than stock also! It was definately worth the money.You could try Alcon for 4 piston calipers also but it just depends on how much your willing to spend and what you want to use them for!
