Am I missing something? Aren't they just stickers???

I see what you're saying, in all honesty that's probably what I would end up doing - buying a modded one. How modded I don't know, and it would depend on what's been modded and of course my budget at the time. Most likely would get one with a standard engine but extensive chassis mods as I'm not...

Yeah I was thinking of doing that too but with the type of things these cars are put through, you never know how long your gearbox is going to last or whether you're going to end up with an expensive engine bill due to a cambelt failure or a dropped valve. At least with a fresh gearbox and...

Had my 182 Trophy written off xmas eve 2006 when some chav hit me head-on, then I got a Focus RS. Got bored of that so I bought a GSXR then a Fireblade and went to race school, doing several trackdays and getting into the fast group. As fun as motorcycles are, I would now only ride them on the...

Would you say they are the best on the market? I've heard that they are the Be-all & end-all of brake kits.

Has anyone fitted AP racing brakes to their RS clio with the 16" wheels still on?

Isn't there a way to get the brakes 'balanced' so that rear brakes have more stopping power?

When getting a big brake kit, which to my knowledge are usually just the front discs, is it advisable to get the rear discs replaced aswell?
