Guest Eggsy Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 4 pots you plonka otherwise it aint worth putting them on prep 2 wheelers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest the chunkster Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 2wd and 4 opts as eggsy said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest marcus Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 4x4 calipers will do fine, unlike the RWD 4 pots they do not have the habbit of seizing !! 4x4 calipers from a cosworth are not 4 pots they have 2 pistons. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest marcus Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Forgot to mention as with 4 pots you will have a low pedel, because the master cylinder cannot shift enough fluid with a single pump of the pedel. Thats why 4x4 calipers are the better option. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest steelcabby Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 2WD USE 4POTS ON THE FRONT PAUL. 4X4 CALIPERS ARE SUPOSED TO BE BETTER THAN THE FOUR POTS DEW TO THE TIME THEY TAKE TO HEAT UP. 4 POT 2WD CALIPERS TAKE LONGER THAN THE 4X4 ONES. SO 4X4 ONES SEEM TO BE BETTER COLD AND WARM AND STOP JUST AS WELL IF NOT BETTER THAN THE 4 POTS WHEN WARM.. JUST KEEP THE ONES YOU GOT MATE SINGLE COSSIE ONES I MEAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
