Clio 172 Mk2 brake upgrades.

Does any body know where I might get a brembo braking system from for my clio 172? I am after an upgrade as the brakes at the minute are very poor.

If any one can help out that would be great cheers.

Brembo kit is very expensive something like £1.2k.

Best idea on the relitive cheap is to change all the fluid for some decient stuff fully bleed the setup and go to harder pads DS2500 are supposed to be very good but they are hard on disks and can wear quick.

Normal setup with Renault pads and good fluid isn't to bad (for road use) bleeding the calipers with good fluid can make a big difference.

4 pots on the stock disks would be a good upgrade I'm looking at at the moment.

where can you get 4 pots from? I think the standard discs look pants - they rust round the edges real bad and as soon as a drip of water touches the main part of the disc it goes rusty and looks shite! I want to change the discs for these reasons as well as having better brakes - any recommendations for discs and pads?

You cannot get a cheap 4 pot setup I'm looking into it now though. The disk are fine though its the calipers and pads which are the issue.
Brembo disk have wear indicators on them which is good and beter pads do wonders.
