there is so much out there for them, you on m5board? loads of info on there, i need front brakes on mine and am tempted with a trip to stoptech...
pm sent back.
Thats a lot of money for brakes on an old car.Suppose they have to perform though...
EDIT: just done a search and you can get them a lot cheaper than 3k

But i agree...There's no way i'd spend 3k on a car thats only worth 8!!!
ksport sound pikey cos they are lol
F*cking hell that is a short video lol. Nice though.
Will get a longer one up when the wife is NOT with me
Didn't realise Hartge used this lump in the Z4! BEAST!
They sound pikey but perform very very well with decent pads.
I missed a set of APs on Ebay 4 weeks ago for £1200. Barely used and they didn't even sell! Can't find the original add now!
lol for how long! i have seen calipers with cracks internally, warped, ali so thin its buldged internally and wedged pistons solid!
they are cheap chinese s**t! there is no quality control, why do brembo etc make mostly cast calipers lol and not billet ones! and the billet ones made are thick and have quality control dont try and kid yourself that k sport are good brakes! i would rather stick my feet through the floor than use k sport!
It's a good job i don't listen to what you say fella as Rotas are also crap in your mind but perform and look very well on Evos Funny enough so do K Sports
What there is a Z4 that acutally can be called a BEAST?
rotas are ok wheels just they rip off other companies designs! its a bit like having a fake watch, it might look real but it isnt!
and lets face it when have you had an evo long enough to know how well the brakes last, have you ever run an evo over a year with k sports on and seen how they lasted?? there are pleanty of people proving my point!
why do people think that buying cheap brakes is a good thing? they save your life! they stop you! why the f**k would you buy cheap s**t to do that job??
no serious racing team would touch them! drifters use them and time attack people use them as they get sponsored by them lol! you dont see any of the top drifters using them? you dont see any japanese drivers using them?! but in the uk oh its cheap that makes it ok! LOL!
there was a guy on gtroc using k sports, 600bhp+ was at a track day, his k sports worked fine for a few laps, then they got hot, he stopped let them cool went back out, touched the brakes and they fractured cracked nearly in half! sent his skyline in to a barrier, through that and in to a tree wrote it off!
i dont understand why you would spend as much as you do on the engine and handling, then you go and put cheap brakes on it and cheap wheels lol! its like paying for a gf to get breast implants and only getting one tit done because its cheaper!
Couple of quick pics today. Why is it the rear & side looks ace but the front looks s**t! Anyhow there is also a quick vid at the bottom for the noise lovers. Could not do anymore as i had the whinning other half next to me
angel eyes and the aluminium style trim make such a huge difference to the look of these!
didn't know you were looking for angel eyes, just sold a set pretty cheap on friday
ahh i sold these for £300, £200 is cheap especially for new ones with the wiring where did you find those! easily pay £499 a unit on ebay!
