Gotta be slotted ROTORs IMO ...

Reviving the dead thread. I just bought Brembos and I was wondering do we re use the bolts from the v6 or we need the SS bolts?

verboten · 06-25-2015, 07:39 AM

Bolts are the same.

I would personally buy new ones for cheap insurance.. as they are TTY...

rebelyell22 · 07-05-2015, 10:48 AM

Is that the Focus RS logo?

camaro2lt · 07-05-2015, 11:45 PM

Never realized it but it sure looks like its from the ford rs

The full conversion kit for V6 uses a different master cylinder. It appears people are using the Brembos with stock V6 master cylinder.

I've done the swap to my car and have driven my friend's SS,there isn't noticeable difference in pedal feel using the original Master.

Interesting. It would seem that with so much more volume in the caliper, the master would need to have more stroke or larger piston to move the larger/more numerous pistons.
I'll give it a shot- I just need to find a rear pair and then order up some rotors and stainless lines. Will probably do the fronts while I search for rears.
