yes you do need renault RS calipers to fit adapters as you cant get them for the 406 brembos, think the biggest you can go is 330mm discs________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

they will weigh half a bloody ton Rick, I think its a two pot sliding caliper, but I can't see from the pictures, they use a 340 x 30 mm disc  they have bigger rear discs than a 6 has at the front at 290x12  ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

they do also run 225 40 tyres and far more modern ABS than a 306, so not surprising they can apply that much braking force  ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
