How To Get A Brand New ''Brembo'' 4 Pot Kit For Under £600

[Gus]

It'll be the spokes and inner part of the rim that will potentially cause you a headache mate. Look at the pics of my superleggeras and you'll see what I'm on about. Et37 for reference as well.

You know what ... I cant believe I have only just thought of it now but Mike from Ren Tech Portsmouth has 16" ultraleggeras and Brembos . Here is a pic I took a minute ago. I dont know if they are 300mm disks though but think they must be from the small gap between the caliper and wheel. He looks to have 15mm spacers. Will ask him tomorrow what set up he has.
Stunning wheels though.

How do fitting Brembo's compare to standard good condition calipers & DS1.11s? @George@RTR_Parts

I would say my 300mm discs, 197/200 pads and Brembos are little softer on the pedal but if and when i want to stop the bloody stop on a 2p.

@MarcR™ Thanks, perhaps I'll wait then

@Dan_R* I assume the Budweg ones don't have a Brembo sticker?

No they were just plain silver. Of course you can add your own + some clear lacquer for pennies

 

[jesus]

They're stopped doing the Budweg ones now apparently

 

[masekwm]

Which pads for track? @George@RTR_Parts

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

@masekwm the DS1.11 for the front pads mate

Hope not as I've just had one side delivered... Hopefully the other will be in stock soon!

How much is a single?

£94.
I called brakeparts and they said they expect one of the other side to come in stock but they are having problems with people not returning their calipers for refurb!

 

[Faboka]

Just looked on brake parts and showing £65 a caliper. So £130 in total. Tempting

 

[Faboka]

Plus £50 surcharge

What are the chances of getting these under a 15" 2118?

Is there much squealing with these? I tried the 406 brembos and they were deafening

It has been done, I searched and found several examples but didn't save the links so can't point you in their direction but if you take a look I'm sure you'll come across them.

Boom, instock, bought

The good news is that the OZ Ultraleggeras 16" wheels fit with 300mm discs, PMS mounted brembos . There is a good 2-3 mm clearance. The other good news is that I will be able to ditch the spacers and long wheel bolts now as the ET on the Oz wheels is 36 or 37.

Looks good mate. If only the superleggeras gave that much clearance!!

Will any pad fitting kit work with any pad?

The ones in question are Brembo OE style pads and a Mintex fitting kit.

Do you mean the pin and spring kit - if so yes it will work with any pads.

Yes - particularly this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/371247013661?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Cheers.

 

[Crybert]

You due to get those calipers today @jesus ?

Let me know if they arrive!

 

[jesus]

Will do 😌

@NorthloopCup have you fitted the OZ superleggera's to your car whilst running 4 pot Brembo's? If so what brackets were you using and if using spacers what size? Thanks. Looking to run the same setup and as my car is a daily driver I would rather have everything I need before I start :wink:

Yes mate I have.

That's a set of 300mm brackets and 295x28 discs on a rotor and bell setup. The calipers have been machined by 2.5mm to drop them down to suit the 295's.
You can fit 300mm scenic discs and the brembos, but you can't run any wheel weights as there's not enough clearance. There's no spacers fitted, but I'd say you will need 3mm universal spacers to be on the safe side.

That setup pictured above has a thicker bell mounting face to space the wheel out slightly anyway.

 

[Mariusz]

Thank you for the info and picture @NorthloopCup that's great, just what I needed. I was planning on running 300mm scenic discs with the pure motorsport brackets for the Brembo calipers. So it sounds like I'd be fine with 5mm H&R spacers :smile:

Bump - Calipers are back in stock at Brakeparts, first time in a while
