hi
opinions based on facts about hi-spec brakes
was thinking of a 280mm 4 pot set
or those AP ones that reyland do/did, 300mm but saw them under a set of allesio 2 wheels before?
just think its a better mod than the 288v6 set up

interesting.......elaborate please stu?Originally Posted by Stuart
I'd go for AP if you can get hold of a set.
I would go with wilwoods can't go wrong win them,hi spec are too overly priced
As Connor said About the ap brakes
i have some brembos but engineers n welders seem reluctant to help me make them fit or even make a bracket
they were mated to a Honda integra 2003 DC5 which came with 300mm discs but sure hey could suit the 288 V6 discs or maybe even the 4stud corsa C discs?
also worried wilwoods n hispecs dont have dust seals?
I found some Brembo calipers for good money last year & then looked around for what disks could be used; if you're making brackets & sourcing disks then try to work out how big you can go.
Fairly sure you can get 308's inside a 16" rim as I'm on 337's from an Insignia [17s], but not the 2 piece type.
Sometimes asking an engineer to design AND make something can be off putting; try to get the calipers & disks, then start putting them on a detached steering knuckle and trial fitting the wheel. I made a template from this out of ally box & just handed it over to my machinist to mill down in billet. Often it's better not to even complicate the situation by telling them the function.
It can take a fair amount of work taking metal off wheel / calipers when going for extremes, but it's worth it I think.
cool
ill have to see how they measure up
my brembos have boly holes already but can a welder grind these off to ake a new set of holes or can they even be made bigger fot a relocation?
some wilwoods like to snap in ythe middle to
i run 300mm hi specs aint all fussed tbh on them and yes the have dust seals
