There is a dual piston caliper upgrade thread using those calipers on ClubProtege...IIRC.

EDIT: http://www.clubprotege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=34040" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The how to was written by a guy in New Zealand so some of the references are to cars we don't see here. There is some information regarding A spec stuff on page 4.

I think dave0r, the author, is on here. Would this actually transfer to mx3s though?

MX-3 is a BG variant. It is basically similar to the Escort and Protege, however some additional differences may exist.

Some day I plan to design an easy to install big brake kit for us...someday.

I'm not saying it will be cheap...but it will bolt on.
