ManwithSupra Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) I am going to be doing a big brake upgrade soon and i just wanted to know how much i could sell my UK brakes for.. What i would be selling is.. Front and Rear UK Calipers Used Front Discs and Pads (lots of wear left) New boxed Goodridge Braided lines - Not used New Caliper Refurb kits For both front and rear calipers New OEM Supra Decal Kit. Just a rough idea on how much this will go towards the new kit. Edited August 2, 2010 by ManwithSupra (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamuraiFlash Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 I'll have your rears when they become available. I bought the front calipers with pads and disks for £400. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supranature Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 I would say £500+ for the fronts and £300+ for the rears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackie Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Do they really make that much of a difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Sachs Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Dunk are those prices per calliper/disk/pad or is they the price for the full front and rear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Do they really make that much of a difference? Yes they do, not for normal round town driving but when hauling the car down from speed its a marked difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcgoo Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Do they really make that much of a difference? J-spec brakes will slow you to a stop from high speed without much bother.......once. They get very hot quickly and if you use them in anger a few times consecutively they will start to give up and most likely you'll warp a disc. The UK brakes are brilliant. They will take MUCH more abuse before even thinking about giving up. On a side note though, good brake fluid is essential in either type of brake and makes a massive difference to their performance.
