on a serious note, i think rich_16v had a big brake kit on his valver and dazg has just got a k-tec brake kit on his 182. might be worth a search

Forget them there useless there no better than stock and are just for looks. DS2500's and stock disks etc are fine and cheaper.
They do look good if you like the dig disk look.

Silly price though.

 

[clio head]

^^^^^....they really aint that much better then stock... how come?

[clio head]

^^^^ha...ha..haaaaaaaaaa :rasp:

 

[Rich_16v]

Some brembo max discs standard size and DS2500 pads or Mintex 1144's and you can't go wrong in my opinion.

No real point paying that kind of cash for two pot brakes, my four pots were over kill but thats much more money again

 

[clio head]

rich where would i get these from... u no of a web site?

 

[Jamie]

i have the ktec big brake kit and am very happy with them now that they have been run in, the green stuff pads that they supply with their kits arent the best and the kit itself isnt the cheapest but the reason i bought from them is due to the poor customer service i recieved from another 'specailist' but ktec delivered in that respect. i think there are some pics on the gallery of mine

 

[clio head]

Big brake kits? i could think of a thousand better ways to spend the money

 

[Rich_16v]

Try gsfcarparts.com for the discs you get cliosport member discount and they'll have a local branch so you can collect to avoid postage costs.

Never tried those pads but they're for track use according to the link. Mintex 1144 pads are about £30 for the fronts

i think 4pots are more than worht the money

 

[clio head]

iight cheers rich.. ive got a gsf centre round the corner soo ill pop in one day during work!

GavFre how would u spend the money then

 

[Rich_16v]

^ Dwarf p**n

You're looking at about £100 for the discs and pads and its a good setup, just keep the rears stock as they do next to nothing anyway

On a 2grand car without tb's/turbo? i couldnt. I know they are good though, but i was talking about big brake kits.

GavFre how would u spend the money then

Well is your car in perfect condition? if the ball joints, arbs bushes, track rods etc etc are old and i had money to burn, thats the sory of direction i would take, useful items.

Just my op[inion of course.
