StuartW Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I need more than UK spec with Hawk green Pads, I know i can spend £2000+ for a new set of AP's or something but wondered if anyone had any used sets or a 6 pot front set up? Or any ideas on new sets at good prices. I aim to do more track days next year and just want more stopping power and the safety of less brake fade. Currently full weight with 577hp @ hubs. 18" Lexus wheels with good clearance on the UK's Anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StuartW Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 Thanks Jamie, I had a good look but only seem to be like new greddy kits where the front set alone is £2500 Do you mind me asking what you paid for your set and if i will have any issues with clearance? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edge Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 What about something like range rover sport discs and pads? Dcarter has been running them on his car now for quite a few months now and can possibly make you a mounting kit. And plenty of spare change left over to sort the rears out.

Lot more than that, most people regard hub bhp as flywheel. 577 at the wheels must be a flyer:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistonbroke Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I'm interested in these brake kits too. The D2's are the ones I was going for, but the K-sports look identical. Paul while you're here, maybe you could answer this for me. Are the K-sport 8 pot front calipers wider than UK calipers? I have UK brakes on mine at the moment and have very little clearance between the wheel and the face of the caliper. If they were any wider I'll need spacers.

I'm pretty sure there about the same, K-Sport do have all the measurements available if needed. Pretty sure they'll clear your wheels though.
