nice, think the sixes will fill the wheels really nicely.

I was going to go for AP 4 or 6-pots but in the end decided on something a little different, namely the movit porsche system.

Good to see that there's still life in our 'old' cars!

 

I've been after some AP 6 pots for some time and Scooby Mania's offer was too hard to resist with a saving of almost £400 compared to a local performance tuner.

Hopefully they will be fitted within the next 3-4 weeks and then I will truly be able to trust my brakes !!

 

Got the 'after' pics ready now......



Big thanks to the really nice guys at Scooby Mania for the great price and fitting deal.

Blimey, they look different! Prepare for a shock when you first use those things in anger When I stick mine on hard it feels like they're gonna rip the wheels off the car Fabulous brakes, mate

Richard.

 

Muncher, fantastic choice, looks the bizz and will be like hittin a brick wall when you stamp on em!!

Thinkin of buyin a set myself, maybe the 4s, did you shop around for them before going to Scooby Mania, how did their price compare to say AP direct?

Cheers..........

 

and just out curiosity what did you pay for them fitted?

 

Scooby Mania supplied fitted them for £1300 + vat & £60 fitting but that was a special offer that ended second week of January.

 

If I am not mistaken your old discs must have been the Tarox G88, the model with the 40 grooves.

I have bought the same disks with Tarox pads. I find that they are OK and they keep on improving even after 1000 miles. Did you think that they were an improvement over standard brakes? Did you find any cracks or did you warp the disks?

 

I didn't find the Tarox discs and pads any better than the standard discs, after a couple of high speed stop starts they fade really badly. The point is that I didn't trust them with my life.

I'm sure half the reason was probably the brake fluid boiling but the AP's just blow the standard (and tarox) setup away.

 

Ordered my AP-6 Pot caliper brakes this week so here is a shot before fitting and will be followed soon by an after shot !!
