im after doing a break up grade (its ony a 1.0 12v) but m preparing for when i can do engine upgrade.

how much am i looking at spending to get a decent setup, or should i just go to scrapy and have a look? what cars will i take them off and what do i need to remove obviously disks and calipers.. any thing else.

Depends what wheel size you're running as to what you're upgrading.

If it is the standard 13" steelies/alloy equivalent, not a lot I should think.
