Rajinder Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 This is for people who spend a fortune on big brake kits. Yesterday I was at Abingdon for the track day and my UK Brake setup with CW fast road pads, Castrol RBf 600 BF and braided lines put to shame quite a few AP and Brembos on light Elises and Caterhams in the late braking department.

This maybe so, but they do look cool as Fook behind the wheels. Iv got the Full UK set up on mine, and i do like them, but think next year i'll be going bigger, just for looks though as i dont intend tracking mine, Just yet.

Purity14 Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 By far the best mod then wonder if they do anything for the discs...... No way, people seriously do that? Remember them pretend disks that attach to the drum brakes people used to have? LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I always here people say how good uk brakes are, there is no doubting they do the job well, i have had plenty of supras with uk brakes and they have never felt that good to me, they work ok if you are really hard on them but i have found brake peddle feel to be terrible, my brembos feel miles better, and look miles better an all.

TopgunTT Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I got my big brakes for looks not just for the stopping power. I think you will find alot of members agree that big brakes look better than normal uk set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
