chrisl Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 I took the front wheels off my escort yesterday for the first time and I am sure the brakes are upgraded. It says 'Type 16' on the front calipers, now does this mean M16 which I believe is standard on the escorts?
sambo Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 The difference between Type 16 and M16 is the thread, i believe. Type 16 ~ imperial M16 ~ metric.
chrisl Posted February 16, 2010 Author Report Posted February 16, 2010 So they are probably the standard ones then?
Andrade Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 So they are probably the standard ones then? what i know for sure is that m16 can be "upgraded" to take vented discs, or using performance pads
GT_lenny Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 The difference between Type 16 and M16 is the thread, i believe.Type 16 ~ imperial M16 ~ metric. i thought p16's were the imperial version of the M16's
bortaf Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 P16 Imp threads M16 metric threads Theres 2 differant makes of M16 caliper european and UK depending where the car was built.
