mate, why bother with the RS2k rear disks?

get your self a zetec-s rear beam and focus rear stub axle's and calipers!

that waythey will be alot newer and you will benifit from a stiffer rear beam aswell!

Because I don't want the larger trackwidth of the ZS beam to give me problems with the wheels scrubbing at the back. My car's all about having a totally useable and driveable car, so I'm not willing to sacrifice driveability by adding something aimed to help things! I'd like the stiffer rear end, but the back end on mine's never given me problems.

I'm buying Andy Hardy's RS2000 setup, and it'll end up less than half the cost of the full ZS rear beam transplant and give me plenty of added braking. Also it's pretty much a bolt-on modification, which is very important as I only have about 2 weeks at home for christmas. I don't have the time to be doing substantial things to it, and don't want to leave it unfinished when I come back to uni again :)

Well perhaps you should have your eye on THIS!

Sorry matey, fed up of picking the back wheels off the ground under heavy braking, it's a need, not a want!
