Honestly it'll be easier and by all accounts more effective to fit a pair of pug 406 coupe v6 brembos.
You'll need to get the discs custom drilled as the TF uses a different PCD and then you'll need to get some adaptor platesade up id guess.

All of these things can be obtained more easily and it has been done a number of times by others.

Don't get me wrong it'll be cool. But brembos are cooler and bigger ;)

You wont get those discs drilled for the correct PDC as there are no discs included.

I honestly only read the ap callipers bit and then came back lol

They're probably available elsewhere.

You'll find all the info you'll need :)

It has been done a few times, but breaking isn't as good as oe, due to smaller cylinders...

only good place to use those would be for the rear :-)

far better front options out there but cheapest good setup is the brembodge. There are a few guys that can supply you better drawings for the adaptors that dont need spacing with washers and martin at reylands can supply better qual discs.

Well i think i may have a way forward, the fiat coupe turbo has 300 dia discs, with 4 x 100CPD studs. 28 mm thick so i need to measure if they will fit between the pads
