pedrosixfour Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Some say yes, some say no! Anyway you have it bought now, a little late for research don't you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Makes some difference on mine. TBH if your on JSpec brakes, like me, we need all the help we can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul mac Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 i am a little sceptical of these, but they are what i would term a "neutral upgrade", even if they do nothing they certainly cant make the brakes any worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul372 Posted April 30, 2009 Author Share Posted April 30, 2009 Add some Goodridge hoses, decent fluid DOT 5.1 (NOT 5) or high quality DOT4 and some Chris Wilson pads then. done that already i ve got goodridge hoses and endless pads with 3g discs from envy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Yes they make quite a difference, there is quite a bit of flex in the brake master cylinder, especially on the cars with the smaller factory fitted brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul372 Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 just fiitted it and tested it out, at first i didnt notice alot of diffrence on normal driving but under hard braking there is a slight diffrence the brakes feel abit firmer so must be doing something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
