Will the rotors and calipers from the T3 TE50 fit on my FBT? As I've got the larger brakes already (EL GT/Cobra) I am hoping they will fit. Thanks for the help

Why do you want to change them to the TE50 ones?

Because I have seen them cheap, and they have the red caliper. Does anyone know if they will fit? Are the calipers exactly the same because I'm pretty sure the T3's ran the PBR twin piston ones as well. I've been told I may need an adaptor bracket for the caliper cradle, is this right?
Cheers

well the t3 ran pbr twin pistons with tickford embossing and red callipers, it had a bracket that the calliper mounted to in order to accomodate the bigger disc

There is actually some debate as to whether the T3 TE50 calipers came with black calipers. T3 TS50, definately came with red calipers.

And the front calipers are a PBR modified twin-piston caliper aka Cobra.
