- Welcome to my DiY Big Brake Install video, in this video i will show you how to give your Fiesta ST180 a well deserved Brakes Upgrade that is really needed when you are running stage 2 power or more. I went for the EBC Build just because iv worked with EBC in the past and they are really good for there brakes. It tool me about an hour to do both sides and that was me braking the whole system and changing my Dot4 brake fluid with high Dot4 Performance Castrol brake fluid.
For this build you will need to purchase 2 Megane 225 calipers. I bought mine from ebay for around £250, i also refurbished them and bought new piston rings and rubbers. i also painted the calipers a nice yellow to go with the color theme of the car.

I am going to be upgrading my rear brakes to the Focus ST170 Caliper Carriers so i can have the EBC Focus ST170 280mm rear discs. so keep an eye out for that video to drop.
Dude, chuck an axle stand under your car.......Seen plenty of jacks fail. I know "it'll never happen to me"...
Looks amazing now ☺️ Definitely glad we did it!👍🏻 xxxx
you prolly dont give a shit but if you guys are stoned like me atm then you can stream pretty much all the latest series on InstaFlixxer. I've been streaming with my girlfriend for the last couple of weeks xD
@Muhammad Chandler definitely, been using Instaflixxer for years myself =)
Hi I’ve done this to my st180. Feels really good. I’ve got them under team dynamics 1.2 16 inch et35 with 3mm spacers if anyones wanting to do the same.
Same i did on my Honda civic....its catch the people attention...
Where did you get the caliper mounting brackets from ?
Looks good, how's the brake pedal feel and ABS operation with them?
Dying to do this to mine but have yet to find any calipers going for a reasonable price 😫
It’s highly recommended pal honest :) I got the calipers for cheap as I reconditioned them :)
@@perthcruiser5016 managed to source some now I'm gonna strip them and start the paint and rebuild 👌
Aww nice pal, hit me up on Instagram if you have any questions about it as I’m not on here as much now, my Instagram is @Perth2.0
How has the setup gone with using 15mm spacers. I'm looking to do this upgrade myself but just wondering if you've had any issues with the standard alloys rubbing against the caliper? I'm running 35mm springs and the standard alloys on mine.
Dean Butler the 15mm spacers worked perfect but I didn’t trust the gap so I bought some 3mm universal spacer and put them on aswel
you got link for piston rings and seals mate?
Anyone running this kit under Team Dynamics without spacers? I have 17" et38 1.2's and 16" et35 1.2's.
Would really love to get away without spacers. The video uses 15cm spacers, with the stock wheel offset being et47.5. So, I think it would come down to whether the profile of the spokes allows for it
A lot of money to spend if you don't know whether it'll work or not ha
Think these might fit under 16” wheels?
I'd like to know that too.
Following as well. The guys on the big facebook group seem to think they will but no one has tried
I ordered some dekagrams and have this kit currently fitted. Will try to remember to update on whether or not they work
logan smith can confirm these do fit under 16’s!
How much would picking up a pair of these calipers be?
I got mine for about £235 but they there used and I refused them
Hi, i read that the focus st disc are 24mm thickness but the Megane rs are 28mm. Do you notice that?
Nope never noticed a difference, tbh it fit in really snug, perfect size
@@perthcruiser5016 yes the size is correct but i m talking about the pistons travel course. With 28mm disc and new pads there are no problems. The 24mm disc and new pads, the pistons start with
4mm travel plus the pad wear gets low with use. The risk is that the piston get out too much with low pads and can fall out ( sorry for my English )
Nope the travel with the pads and pistons to the disc where good :) never had any problems, plus it’s not a Megan Rs calipers it’s a Megane 225 caliper
@@perthcruiser5016sorry if i m continuing with this topic but i work for Brembo and talking with my colleagues we agree that with new pads you don t have problems. The problems will arrive with low pads material. The caliper for the megan rs or 225 are the same you can check on Brembo site
Thank you for the concern but I know 6 other people who have made the conversion and haven’t had any problems arouse. I change my pads every 3-4K miles when I service it.
Distanziali da quanto sull anteriore??
Diammeter disc?
also looking in doing this to my st
george froudarakis you definitely should do this upgrade, it’s so easy and not that expensive
@@perthcruiser5016 i have got the disks now getting the rest of the parts i assume the brake lines as the same as the standard ones?
george froudarakis I believe so yeah, I bought braided lines for mine
