RS 2000 FRONT BRAKES?
Are escort RS 2000 Calipers/discs a direct replacement for RS1800 Brakes?
I should know the answer as i have already done it to the track car but can't for the life of me if it was a straight swap be'ing as it was a few years back

Basically a straight swap as long as you have at least 14 inch wheels. Took me a while to find some suitable flexible pipes as the RS2000 calipers have a banjo fitting.

bang on except the banjo part, mine were a direct fit, full stop no special fitting required
but as said make sure you have atleast 14" wheels
