The OEM Focus SVT brake parts came from UK castings.
Although these parts went obsolete here in the US, they did not go obsolete in the UK until sometime later.
When I last spoke with PumaSpeed, I was told that they had bought up all of the remaining inventory from Ford.
If these parts are still available from PumaSpeed then they are OEM parts.

This seems like a really good alternative to the svt brake conversion with out the trouble of hunting down discontinued parts. Maybe just other option for some of you that you might not be aware of
What is the ST180 and ST170 (new to the st scene)

ST170 was on previous generation of FiST in the UK aka MK6, ST180 is Euro spec equivalent of our cars except I believe they did not get the overboost that was reserved for the ST200. There were other slight difference but thats pretty a brief overview.

They ARE the same OEM part.
Same manufacturer/vendor.
They were just sold with a different part number here in the US.

Rock has reman'd brackets from A1 Cardone available. The fine Philly concern (A 1) which provides reman, from alternators to CV shafts, to the industry.....29 bucks each.

I assume this means rock auto? I looked at caliper brackets for both of the 2.0’s and 2.3 and all I can find is the smaller Ford one. Do you have a link?

For the love of God..it isn't hard finding the SVT brackets people. Just do a nation wide junkyard search for the 00-03' SVT ford Focus.

I'd triple / quadruple check that they are indeed the right parts.
