Peoples thoughts on AP racing 4 pots???

[172alex]

Are these any good for track use? :S

Where can i get them from, im struggling to find any decent sites with prices?

Or what else is any good???? :quiet:

Cheers

 

[Fred@BTM]

very good, el expensive though! (and overkill IMO)

 

[Shotgunsjay]

mate has them on his escort cossie, awsome piece of kit

 

[172alex]

Wicked. Thats what i wanted to hear. Does anyone know of any sites which stock them for the RS clios?

 

[Fred@BTM]

no, but yozza will be able to get them in yozzasport.com

Awesome brakes but if you are in a stripped 2ltr then as Fred says it might be a bit ott...decent fluid, braided hoses and some pf or Pagid blues should do you fine imo

True, may be overkill, but we'll see.

How much should I expect to pay for a front set?

 

[homer simpson]

they are the best brakes money can get that's why all the btcc boys use them

 

[Fred@BTM]

about £1500 IIRC

 

[ChrisD172]

Are there no other brakes in the renault range that are a good upgrade for the clio? Maybe a cheaper option?

Would a megane sport set up fit?

Got them on the vee (obviously) They are good, but I think I prefered the Brembo's on my fiat coupe.

 

[Bodge!]

Brembo-Tastic

Brembos do have a very good reputation though.
TBH I hadnt heard of AP racing before i got into the track day scene.

ap racing is the brakes that you get if you are racing they cost quite a bit so most road cars have brembo's as they are cheeper

 

[ado]

Is Brembo and AP the same company?

 

[ForceIndia]

Overkill. It's a light car,

 

[Fred@BTM]

compbrake, hispec also do 4pots

ap and brembo are connected these days, owned by honeywell i believe

 

[Henry22]

AP's are the best bar none.. Complete overkill on a clio however..

 

[Keith185]

D4ve on here has a set on his clio.

Your looking at around £1400 all in, then replacement discs are £120 each.

Have no doubt that there an awsome setup but 4x the cost of brembo HC discs, that's made even me seriously think wether I really need them or not

Current setup is pretty good (yozzasport upgrade)

Depends how much track use you want out of them. APs will last and you get good support. If you do the occasional track day and are ok with a more pikey brand, go with Hi Spec or Wilwood.

If you're ok with custom, then Alcon do mono bloc calipers cheaper than AP.
