supra_si Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 did you get them from new zealand pal?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmunky Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 I did indeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_si Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 He has good shipping rates but beware that you will get a tax invoice about a week to 2 weeks after delivery from customs. i paid 20 quid for a small hks ssqv in import tax, I hope your bills not too high with the sheers size and weight of the brakes and discs.

madmunky Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 Just thought I upgrade my Jspec ones before I go single and well these cheaped alot cheaper the most big brake kits so just wanted to know what they are like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_si Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 they are a good price though, been tempted before but resisted for other mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 i think theyre sposed to be ok, i knew a few ppl who were running the kits on their Starlets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simbasupra Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Did JamieP run these on his old supe? If i remember i think he said they were ok but is going for a different brand this time round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I think you just have to remember how much you're paying for them. They arent going to be as good as a set of Brembos, but theyre going to be an improvement on "J spec" brakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simbasupra Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 yeah just checked he had D2's on the front not sure about the rear. He's gone for brembos this time around. Maybe worth a pm to him mate to get his views. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
