After being messed around by a couple of other companies I got up to TSL on the 9th. Managed to get a bit lost on the way but the trip up from London was definately worth it in the end. They are top blokes with excellent customer service. I went for the Group N kit which are 295mm brembo discs which use the original 4 pot calipers on my STi as well as Ferrodo DS2500 pads.

I was going to get the braided brake lines put on as well only to be told that the previous owner had already had them done so I spent the money on a tarty Forge VTA Dump valve instead. I am still trying to be quite gentle on the brakes as I want to bed them in properly over a long time but I can already feel a huge difference in stopping power and a much better feel to them over my crap old ones. I will hopefully be giving the brakes a proper workout in the next few days but for the price I paid compared to the £1600 odd that is being asked for a 6 pot setup I think they are a very good compromise.

I also spoke to Forge and ordered the blue spring for the Dump Valve as it doesn't make enough noise at the moment so I wil be swapping that over soon too.

Anyway thanks again to the guys at TSL and I will definatel be up again in a few months to get the car serviced and a few other bits and pieces like the geometry setup dorted out.

 

Glad to hear it, my MY00 is booked in for the same (brakes) at the end of the month.

Very excited now!

 

Yep just been for a quick blat and can definately confirm they are worth the money. Now I stop almost as well as I go

I have the same setup. They are much better than standard.
