GB SVT/986 Boxster Front Brake Brackets for Fiesta ST - $525 (Open now through end of June only)

[HAHAFiST]

Good point. I added some additional part numbers for some alternatives to the instructions - Dynamic Friction is a decent alternative I've been looking at. I also found some Brembo part numbers for the UK spec ST170 Focus, which is identical to the US market SVT Focus rotor, but for some reason isn't marketed here as such, but can be purchased from various vendors.

Can vouch for Dynamic Friction being a good alternative. I also really like Bosch quiet cast but not sure if they have the SVT size option.

Please add me to the list again.

I picked up a ‘99 986 for a track project so I am going to have a set of these calipers when I go to upgrade the brakes on it. These calipers feel better suited on the FiST after driving both for the last 6+ months on the street and track. The 986 could use larger front calipers/rotors (996/S) & the GT3 master cylinder so folks are always upgrading from these calipers and they are easy to find for sale.

I'd like to go back to the 615k+ for regular use, great double duty. Currently i have 200tw for my race and summer use and then All Season on stock wheels for daily/bad weather use. It's a good system but switching wheel sets can get tiring

Hey Everyone! Since wheel fitment is a really tricky business, I have come up with a 3D-printable "fitment jig" that I hope can be used to test wheels in a more straightforward way than the paper template. See the link in the original post if you're interested in trying it out, its still very much in development, so as always, your mileage may vary

Thanks to @Stubborn Approach and @RockinPaco, a couple more fit checks for the list:

The good news:

We threw on some other TD Pro Race 1.2s I had laying around just for fun. Looks like 17" wheels have tons of clearance.

Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 17x8 4X108 ET48, these fit the calipers no problem.

Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 17x7 4X108 ET38 (I think), these should fit no problem.

The bad news:

Pro Race LT. 15x8 ET35

Needed a 12mm spacer so the inner barrel of the wheel could clear the caliper. Then the caliper is <3mm from the barrel. I personally wouldn’t feel comfortable with the clearance. The wheel rotated but, it's probably too tight to be safe.

That means for 15” wheels, it’s likely all down to how generous the barrel clearance is to the millimeter.

Photo they sent of the 15” with 12mm spacer - unfortunately it’s awfully snug in there
