197 brembo calipers onto a 182

[Wests Renault]

Will the calipers from a 197 fit onto a 182? I guess the discs are different sizes between the 2 models. Does anybody know the size of the 197 discs as i would have to find a 4 stud disc in that size. Would the calipers bolt straight on or need brackets?

Thanks Tom

there's a kit coming out to do it using stock discs

197's are 312mm from memory

I would love to do this conversion if only for how the brembo callipers look

cant see it being cheaper than the compbrake kit and it has 2 piece discs.

I would be interested aswell! does anyone know the price for the up coming kit? Would it be a strait forward fitting or would it be complicated?
Cheers ben.

197s discs are quite wide too, something to keep in mind when trying to fill them calipers.

Just buy a 197

I take it the plan is they will still fit behind the oem 16's?

I do like the idea of this using stock discs. Saying that I'll be trying just a pad upgrade to ds2500 first. Love them on my furby
