Does the tf brakes make a difference? I was told they couldn't provide anywhere near the zs180 brakes braking force due to tiny piston area in total...

4 pots work a treat. Good improvement over the620ti set up I had on there, the other reason for fitting them is cheapness of pads and the range of pads avaible for them, they work great ontrack with great peddle feel, I got told it was a waste of time to fit the buy lots of people, all of which had not fitted them there selfs so how would they know anyway

Yeh, I saw a thread on Rover tech I think it was with a guy who chopped loads off to make them fit a ZR hub, deffo didnt look safe especially given the fact that where he had cut went to a right angle so just asking to fracture.
Sounds like you have got around it a good way by using parts from the older Rovers, us ZS folk don't have that option though unfortunately
