Title: bigger breaks? Post by: lorf on August 02, 2013, 05:08:37 PM Hallo, I'm just wondering if anyone has mounted bigger breaks on the 131. Currently mine is fitted with uno turbo breakes because this is the only one I know of that can be fitted without any modification. So to my question.. does anyone know of any other breaks that can be fitted without any large modification . Feks from : fiat coupe, lancia delta, punto abarth , and so on......

What year and engine type on the bravo this brakes come from? Title: Re: bigger breaks? Post by: Thotos on August 03, 2013, 11:50:13 PM Theo, are yours vented or solid? Solid What year and engine type on the bravo this brakes come from? Not exactly sure. They are from the original Bravo (before the Stilo) and they are the solid disks not the vented HGT discs. I think all other Bravos had the same disks? Title: Re: bigger breaks? Post by: Tas131 on August 03, 2013, 11:56:59 PM If you do a forum search you'll find a few peoples thoughts on bigger brakes. I've got Regata 100s calipers and discs on the front of mine and a 132 disc rearend.

Title: Re: bigger breaks? Post by: Thotos on August 05, 2013, 09:30:02 AM The rear brakes on my car are 131 front disks with VW golf callipers. The disks are a straight fit onto the axle but the callipers needed custom modified mounting brackets and the panhard rod vertical mount bracket had to be slimmed slightly for the calliper to fit. But I think that Fiat Croma rear callipers could possibly be fitted with less modifications needed.

Only once 25 years ago i had mintex fast road pads thats all and a mental ride home down twisty country roads and at that time the discs where worn down to about 7mm and where glowing in the dark but never faded and allways stopped on the button ,but i did change them soon after ;D ;D ;D there ability usually out performs yours :D From toad http://www.131mirafiori.com/smf/index.php?topic=6384.0 (http://www.131mirafiori.com/smf/index.php?topic=6384.0) Title: Re: bigger breaks? Post by: stathe174 on September 16, 2013, 10:57:27 PM Theo did you had any modifications made for the front brakes or it was a straight fit?
Title: Re: bigger breaks? Post by: Thotos on September 17, 2013, 08:55:27 AM Theo did you had any modifications made for the front brakes or it was a straight fit? It's a straight fit using the original Bravo brackets for the calipers but they're too large to fit behind 13" wheels so you must have at least 14" wheels. Title: Re: bigger breaks? Post by: aea180 on November 10, 2013, 01:09:06 AM Hello!
I have fiat ritmo 130tc vented front disc and calipers. Is very easy to fit. Title: Re: bigger breaks? Post by: mirafiori76 on November 10, 2013, 07:55:24 AM I have Uno Turbo discs and callipers fitted to my 1600 CL, like Lorf has. The discs have the same diameter as Original. Callipers are an easy fix without having to do any modifications.
