JamieP Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Jamie, how did you find the pedal feel, bite, etc of the D2 before fade kicks in? Yea untill they fade they feel great, took a lot of bleeding to get them right though, must done the 5/6 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefgroover Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 so D2 vs Uk ? how much better in %? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Hmm getting hard now, i had trd pads in the uks and could overheat them after a couple hard pulls, the D2's will last a good few more pulls tearing between MK's roundabouts before they fade( and you get that funny sound when they get hot) id guess 50% better.... but i want perfect so im gonna go with brembos. For your driving id say forget the D2's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Has anyone tried Alcon brakes ? They look like fairly impressive kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colsoop Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Don't think they do a Supra kit though. They do (3/4's of the way down.) http://www.rocketindustries.com.au/search.php?brand=Alcon Looks like a nice setup as well: http://www.rocketindustries.com.au/images/brands/alcon/PWR9052.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefgroover Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 Nice bit of kit, i dread to ask the price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Nice bit of kit, i dread to ask the price! The 6 pot mono block calipers weigh in around $4900 (australian Dollars) from what i could find. But Alcon are a uk based company so i don't know what the price is in the UK.

Chiefgroover Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 Wish there was a way people could easily measure the stopping distance of their car, then we could comare different setups for ourselves, next best thing to having a mag review. My fear is spend a lot and get little more stopping power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
