Does anyone know a good company that sells big brakes for novas? I want 300mm or bigger discs. Id like them to be 4-pots aswell.

Cheers

problem with the smaller willwood kits is that some use wheel spacers which is an arse if you car is slammed my old willwood dyna lites used spacers! :roll:

godspeed were very good as was the service! what alot of people foret was that Ian never gave use (or me) a date that they would be done! he mailed me when he thort they would arrive and they did on time as he said!
id go there again deffo!

I think everyone who bought was happy in the end, just so many people stirring up trouble who had nothing to do with it didnt help.

I agree, I would still recommend Godspeed to anyone for brakes. Mine are the bollocks' just about everyone except Godspeed said I would not get 304mm X 28mm AP disks and CP5200 AP four pot calipers under 15" rims on a Nova.

He was right and My car stops, Believe Me :!: :!:

I would say godspeed.

I know I had a fair bad time with the company, but I hope they have started to sort things out.

Plus it is one customer and not a group buy so there shouldnt be any delays.

Mine look awsome. As for the performance of them. Couldnt tell you. Havent driven the car yet. :evil:

Dont suppose anyone has got some pictures of them on a Nova have they. I see they sell Brembo brakes aswell. Might consider some of those. I did want a set of Wilwoods but I can only find them in 280mm.
