Hello, i am looking into putting Punto GT brakes onto my Sei (i have 14" wheels). Been offered some Calipers off a "1.6 Sporting model." Will these fit? Or are they gonna be too big?

Partcodes are totally different....

I could only recommend looking at the mounting holes, then fabbing up a bracket for it!

1242cc Engine to go in soon, boot delock soon, ETech Wing still in garage, so's the effing K+N!
 
Take into consideration how much stopping power the callipers will have against your tyre to road grip ratio. I.e. is it worth having brakes with awesome braking power if everytime you use them you'll lock the wheels up? Skiding kind of defeats the object of braking!

Cinquecento............Its not the size its how you use it!
 
Aye well if they ain't a straight swap then i will not bother. Considered the locking up prob but i have 185's on the front so theres plenty of contact on the road there.
