Ok Guys,
Managed to secure a great deal on some Stoptech kits if we get 5 or more people.
Most of you have probably heard or already know about the Stoptech kits, however for those that don't there is some details below. All the prices are for the front kits, rear kits are available, however not really necessary.

In the kit we have everything included, as shown in the pic below.
We have a choice of colour for the caliper from: Red, Blue, Black, Yellow, Silver.
However anything other than Red or Black calipers normally is special order and takes a while to get through.
If you have a Classic with 17's the 328x328 kit is best suited.

StopTech Big Brake Kits give your vehicle that Supercar look and feel, and exceed stock performance in two areas.First, larger rotors increase heat capacity. Second, stiffer calipers and stainless steel lines reduce system compliance.
The key, however, is to increase heat capacity and reduce compliance without upsetting the stock front to rear brake torque ratio.
If the brake upgrade you select adds too much front torque (as many do), you reduce your car's ability to utilize the tractive capacity of all of the tires to the maximum practical extent (even on ABS equipped cars) and you therefore create performance sacrifices.
In addition, too many pistons or pistons that are too large will make the brake pedal much more difficult to modulate, which limits a driver's control of brake input on the race track.
Advantages of StopTech over other brake upgrades:
