16V Front Brakes onto my mk1 1.4 RT?

[Jimmie1.4RT]

Hi all.

I'm after a little more stopping power on my mk1 phase 1 1.4 RT.

How would I go on fitting either valver Clio or valver 19 brakes to it? Fairly simple swap?

I've got 15" wheels so space shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Help and advice please.

Thanks in advance!

You need 16v calipers, carriers and discs mate, I have the Williams set-up on my RT!

You dont need the calipers, just the carriers to accept the 259s disks, pads also

You definately need the calipers!!!! The only car you don't need the calipers for the upgrade is the 1.8 RSi.

My mistake, reading a log from a Renault 19 1.4, disregard my post.

I have all the bits you need sat here mate, My mrs even painted the calipers blue last year and I never got round to fitting them.

Will come with reconditioned & painted calipers, carriers, and either standard front discs or I have a brand new set of TAR-OX 40 Groove valver discs sat here also for a good price......I ended up buying 4 pots hence why I have got these sat in the garage.

PM me an offer if your interested and I will send you some pics when I get home in about an hour
