Big Mark Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Anyone else spotted the ebay seller with the Brembo and AP Racing brakes, that aren't actually Brembo or AP Racing. http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/r34gtrmspecnur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 He's selling a supposed upgrade to the OE set ups by the look of it so i don't see there's anything wrong with that unless they're rubbish of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mark Posted May 3, 2017 Author Share Posted May 3, 2017 lol. The quality of the materials used and the quality of the castings for the calipers would be of concern. If they are up to the job then the packages look pretty good. Tho are pics from the genuine parts or the replica parts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I would be concerned buying anything brake wise on eBay, especially when they are much cheaper "branded" items like AP or Brembo. If you are going for a BBK, go with a company who actually deals with the manufacturer or the actual manufacturer itself, not a Chinese copycat wanting to make a quick buck without any regard to quality management or materials used or ultimately your safety. There is a reason why AP and Brembo are expensive and that's because they are proven items, properly built and fit for purpose, using the brand name to sell cheaper Chinese copies to make high ££££'s margins at the risk of inferior materials, processes etc is just playing with fire. You also have to ask the question, if the brakes are any good and of good construction, why did they not come up with their own name instead of copying someone else. That rings alarm bells right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mark Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 Silly I know, but my OCD kicks in Tim with the thought of Brembos on the back with drilled discs and K-Sports on the Front with Grooved discs. Did you find out if K-Sport do Calipers on their own? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burna Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 What's a decent price for a full front set up ? better than Whifbitz ? Tim always says he will beat any UK suppliers price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
