Hey guys so I have been through a few threads on brake upgrades.
From what I read ba calipers are different to au calipers and are slightly better. But are ba calipers different to like bf xr8/xr6t calipers or is it just the mounting bracket to suit 322mm rotors? Ive read the difference between stock au2/au3 and standard ba is not really worth it and for a bit of extra cash the 322mm upgrade would be much better. I found this little kit on ebay. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FORD-FALC...item417adee2c5 So would I just need to source standard ba calipers? and this kit would allow me to run the 322m discs? |

To use this kit on your AU s2-s3 you will also need a set of BA front callipers and a set of BF xr8/xr6t front brake lines.
The BF xr8/xr6t lines are longer. I have the BF xr8 front set up on both my AU3 xr8 and AU2 xr6 ute. Great upgrade. Cheers Dazza |
