[Hank S15]

Dunno mate, looks like crap to fill up the box for the mirrors... you better bin it.
Where do you live again?

 

[A'PEXi]

FK, what did those brakes set u back lol

 

[raytsang]

really nice
love the brakes and mirrors.

oh!!!, if you fine the rims/wheels don't fit the brakes i'll take them off you hehehe

 

[S1Five]

send em over here~

i dont need the mirrors just the brakes will do~ =D

 

[raytsang]

yeah, send the brakes over here i'll break in the pads and rotor for you. so you can put them in your car when it arrives hehehe

 

[ichi-go]

Wow! Some expensive stuffs over there. Yeah interested on how much did it set you back?

 

[MazzyMan]

Nice choices! However...maintenace cost for those brakes are scary!!!!

 

[S15_silvia_]

wow..............*faints*

 

[Nicely]

What size are the discs? And what benefit do the four pot callipers have over the standard four pot or R32GTR four pots? Other than being expensive and looking bling, of course...

 

[slammedmind]

thanks lads but theyre staying put for now lol, The brakes offer much better braking force etc, great for track days and that sort of thing. I basically went for the kit for the oversize rotors, trying to be sensible first and make the car handle/stop before i do the engine work ive done it the opposite way around too many times

 

[Derek]

Very nice rob.. Where you purchase from? The brakes look too nice to fit to car. They should be on the kitch table as placemats..

 

[slammedmind]

lol tell me about it, the pictures dont do them justice! I got them from a mate in HK he supplys me with 99% of my toys

 

[Nicely]

What size discs though?

 

[PhilV]

hmmm those discs look lovely, where is the car?

 

[slammedmind]

disks are 330 x 30 calipers are 6 pot . The car is slowly but surely making its way over from japan right now and should be here for the 14th of feb

 

[Nicely]

Out of interest, how much did you pay? Asking cos the K Sport 330mm 8 pots are ?855...

And ?1000 for the 356mm 8 pots...

BTW, your space saver won't fit over 330s. So, you may want to think about a replacement. It something I'm looking into too...

 

[slammedmind]

lets just say it was around the k sports price . I really didnt think about the space saver with the brakes doh! Not the end of the world tho i suppose. Is there anything you and yakozan dont miss?

We are all over the place

Brakes are looking good
I would prefer Endless before K-sports.
With the K-sports calipers I get the feeling that they just threw one alot of pistons to make it look good.

I prefer tried and tested brakes with a racing heritage brand than a cheap 10000 piston brake. It feels more comforting buying Brembo or Endless or even G-rex.

Dude...watch your brake bias...the rear brakes are tiny.
