R53 jcw brake help
Hi would just like to ask if somebody can help me in completing this system. I have an r53 jcw caliper with carriers. Would just like to confirm if these are the things that i need.
1. Front rotors (please recommend whats the best front rotors for this one.) i think an r56 rotor can fit here.
2. Brakepads ( for daily/street use twisty roads) brakepads for r53 or r56 mcs!
3. Brake sensor ( do i need a nee one)
4. Ss lines ( is there a set where u can buy the r56 sslines in front and r53 in rear)
5.do i need bushings or whatever is that called
6. Do i need to buy any rebuild kits?
Thanks

Look like the stock brakes. The JCW "Red" brakes were an upgraded option at that time.
The Stock rotor size for Gen 1 R50 r52 r53 fronts are 276x22 or about 10.86".
The JCW Rotor size for Gen 1 R50 R52 R53 fronst are 294x22 or about 11.57"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2004 MINI Cooper S (stock non JCW rotors) Front Rotor Cross drilled / slotted.
http://www.ecstuning.com/Search/341891XSGMTLRKT/
2004 MINI Cooper S Rear Cross drilled and slotted ( Same on JCW and non JCW ) 10.19" 259x10
