You juts need the right handbrahe leaver and cylinder and the std calipers should be able to lock up 15" no problem.

By far the cheapest way of doing it.

There is s14 calipers on it and i put a new girling .625 cylinder on it calipers working fine i had them on my s14 before with project mu pads it should lock by just touching it but no i have to drag out of it to get it to lock.
Its a pain in the hole i see one of the lads in a m3 manta he has a set of fiesta front calipers on the back for the handbreak and similar leaverage to mine and a small nip and they lock solid every time

You need to use a AP 14mm cylinder and some Ferrodo pads in the back and all fixed.
