I've taken some pictures of the brakes/hubs that came fitted to my Track car. 
Looks like Volvo calipers but unsure on disc and hub origins
 
Anyone know what they could be off? 
 


Thanks,
Rhys

I pulled out my Ford Workshop manual for TCs and going by the pictures the hub face is flush like an Escort one with only the 4 studs visible not 4 other bolt heads.
 
Currently looking on various sites for pics of UK V6 Capri.

Hey Rhys,
I see there is some action happening.......
Those calipers don't look like regular Girling Volvo 240's. They might be ATE ones??
At least the rotors look like decent thickness......what diameter are the rotors?
 
Cheers

G'Day Davor,
Yes they are ATE's. I haven't read up on them vs Girling yet. I might pull one off over the weekend so I can inspect a bit better and will measure rotors.

The ATE caliper pads are 80x65x15mm where as the Girling are 98x60x16mm.
 
So girling are the preferable ones but the ATE are certainly better than standard.
