Does anyone out there in scooby land know how easy it is to fit MY00 4 pots to a MY98 running 16" Standard alloys?

Advice appreciated in advance.

Cheers

Very easy.

Might as well fit braided hoses and decent fluid whilst your at it.

Checkout www.scoobymods.com for a starting point.

Thanks for the link Andrew, but does the 4 pot calliper fit straight onto the existing mountings?

Is the braking improved dramatically or is it worth just upgrading the pads & discs?

The calipers just bolt onto the existing brackets.

The braking/fade is quite a lot better with 4pots and you have more scope for further improvement.
