Bigger Brakes

Well if you are going to go for into the mid-400s, I suppose you better be able to bring all that muscle & testosterone to a halt quickly?....well that's my excuse to the wife anyway for getting these bad boys!

SEX in a box, very nice mate!

355mm Iddy - As it happens the kit retailed at £2,070 However they were on special offer with Graham Goode for £1,798.80. So I rang up a guy called Andy there and had a good old banter with him and talked him into giving me trade price and he gave me them for £1,629 - which was only a couple of hundred quid more than the D2/K Sport ones I was looking at - no brainer for me!

they are the same size as mine, watch the windscreen when you first brake hard, you will find the 4 pot back ones are next to balance the braking out.

I will mate - I wish I could have afforded to have done both front & back, but that will have to wait a few months. I just changed the back pads to Ferodo DS2500.

Did u up grade front and rear or just rear marietto

Oh yeh baby nice shoes mario

At that price bud just the front for now, upgraded the pads to Ferodo DS2500 on the back

Same size as mine as well bud, fooking awsome stopping power. As Iddy said watch the windscreen lol, & agree i could have done with the rears to even the bias out, as i got lock up quite easy, also i thought the ds2500 were very dusty, & was forever cleaning the wheels.

Dude I paid 1870 for 330mm groves disc all round 8 pot front 4pot rear and blue sticky stuff for my scooby direct from k sport mined ur pads are top spec

Will upgrade backs as well as soon as funds allow - I clean her for about 5 hours every Saturday or Sunday so no big deal with the dirty wheels

To be honest bud I wanted the larger discs and was about to buy the D2 / K Sport kit from APex Performance. But I didn't know that much about those 2 brands and I've often got my kids in the car so I decided to go with the AP Racing kit because of their reputation for brakes. would like to get some rears sorted now but will have to wait.

very nice buddy

Fair one bud that's same for me my old brakes seized up so for the safety of my kids I went with ksport after a lot of research and a visit to the shop in Bradford they were on the money even sorted the lil cock up on there part in 2 days

SGO3RRZ== did you get those for your sport??
wasn't it cheaper to get wrx brakes??

Wrx would of coated more on the rear coz its different mount for the 2 pot bracket

Very swish mate, good choice on AP.
