Good luck :lol: and good luck to the people that have actually tried this mod. Oh and good luck for you other people to get engineers that will give u the big tick for them.

Either that or just do it the proper way and get Mini discs in the first place :wink:

I got 3 Minis with discs- 2 of them use Hondas. And they stop better than my S ones do.

If legal, why not use them. Hot rodders have been mixing and matching discs, hubs and calipers successfully for years!

`Real' Mini 7.5" disc setups are overpriced, and not that good anyway. There has been brake design progress in the last 35 years.
:wink:
