NONE!!! it's awesome... i'm currently using the XR2 brakes and i've come across only 2 downsides: 1) you need 14" or larger rims (13" steelies won't work, i've tried... though they may work with the standard capri brakes), 2) they show you just how crappy your tires really are (i'd be willing to bet that with really sticky tires, i could get Scrappy to do an endo :p )Trees aren't kind to me...
currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

any year capri will work. i recomend the XR2 if you can find them due to the larger swept area and greater mass (less chance of fading)Trees aren't kind to me...

i almost think we should sticky the info about protege/capri brakes working on the festiva as well as aspire swap
1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor
1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)
If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
