Hi All,
I'm looking to upgrade the brakes on my 16v by using parts from a 16vt I'm breaking.

My questions are please:

1) Which parts are different and are definitely needed from the 16vt to make the upgrade?

2) While I'm on the subject of brake upgrades - What parts would be needed to enable a 16vt's front brake system to use 20vt Brembo calipers?

Many thanks.

And reap the rewards, the 16VT brakes are superb, better than the 20VT ones by some margin.

Hi sediciRich / Spee,

Thanks very much for the replies.

Sounds like an easier procedure than I initially thought, which is great.

16vt Calipers and Pads it is then.

Thanks again,
Julian.
