abs and brake upgrade

[escrt1.4i]

my gti has abs i am looking to keep abs if possible and put 300mm set up off on the front aswell as the back so how do i go about keeping the abs

[dan1.8si]

the abs works off a ring behind the disk so you can fit 300mm with no bother mate the abs will still work

how woulkd this work with the rears as at the moment i have drum do have a rs2000 rear beam but looking to swop rs brakes for some st ones

[dan1.8si]

i would keep the rear rs set up as most off the braking is done by the front anyway mate.

Need to have Focus rear hubs machined for the Escort ABS Collector ring. .. The Escort Passive ABS is no compatable with the focus set up.

some late mk6 rs200 with rear disks had abs, most were drums but have seen a fue with abs and disks.

also needto drill the hole for the sensor to 15mm as the focus sensor is smaller

The rs2ks with rear discs only had abs on the front wheels

right so what simple disc conversion can i do to keep the abs on the rear as i have the 30omm setup for the front just unsure on how the abs will still work

The only two conversion that I know of are.

 

1' Focus 2.0 16 ~/~ ST170 ~/~ ST150 and FRS rear set up. 255mm for the 2.0 16v and ST150.

Bah,just bin the ABS

[escrt1.4i]

might just go for bigger front brakes to be honest as i have already do have 300mm setup so can i keep abs with them or not
