Which Calipers?

[Weasel_77 0]

What calipers can be fitted to a 1994 Mi16 Le Mans? the ones that are currently on the car appear to be Girling calipers, I have checked with GSF and they only seem to have non ABS Girling calipers, but the Le Mans has ABS?

 

I have also checked Euro Car parts using the reg plate and it is coming up with Lucas Calipers, do these fit the car also?

Don't know, but there's not "Abs Calipers" and "non-abs Calipers." They're the same calipers regardless of whether or not the 405 has ABS. All fuel injected 405s had the same calipers. (Except the 405 T16 and the carburetor 405s.)

lucaqs is girling..

They look like ZX16v / 306 S16/XSi 266mm disc calipers.

[welshpug 1,678]

which are the same as 405 calipers, but the carriers are different.

[Baz 421]

No they're not...

 

Mi16's have 247mm brakes. Unless Ph2's are different!

[Jer309GTi 3]

Ph1 and 2 both used 266mm, T16 used 283mm as far as I'm aware

[Baz 421]

Wierd! Pretty sure both my 4bies were 247mm!

You've owned far too many 205's Baz .

Are 405 T16 brakes the same as the GTI6?

Are 405 T16 brakes the same as the GTI6?

I think so

[cybernck 403 1 Cars]

Not exactly.

 

They share the discs and the main caliper is quite similar, but the yokes (mounting brackets) are different.

Pretty sure i still have the calipers and discs etc off my old H plate 4bie, Girling calipers not too dis-similar to 205 1.9 Gti jobbies, and 247mm discs! Odd!

It would most certainly have been 266, even the 1.4's on solid 10mm thick discs were 266mm

 

unless someone pulled a fast one and fitted different brakes to it !

Do the yokes fit the the 405 hubs?
