Really hope the cooling hoses work out for you, I stopped cooking brakes with these on but we all brake differently. Have you got the ds2500 pads in too?

All the bits you sent me are fitted mate, thanks so much. I had DS2500 on my clio 172, they were the best pads for track use, so I hope they'll do a job on the Z3 too, got about a 40 mile journey tomorrow to bed in, a bit squishy now.

It's in the genes then ! What engine has the escort got it's pretty quick ?
It is a modern Ford Zetec 2.0 with the head bored recently, I don't know all the details, but the higher/lower ration diff has improved acceleration massively too.

Got a few jobs to do on the Z3 to make it more track ready, at the moment it's not that far from standard really.
