Default AP RACING CP5570 330mm QUESTION...???

I currently have the above brake kit fitted to the front.

Tomorrow, however, I'll be having new 18" Revo Millies fitted... Which leads me to my question:

The 18" wheels will obviously allow me to run the 356mm AP brake kits... But is there any way I can modify my existing 330mm set-up to a 356mm one? I.e. are there calliper extender brackets, plus 356mm discs available to fit my existing bells...?

Or is my only option to have to simply buy a 356mm kit from scratch, proper?

Do you need any extra stopping power? 330mm aps should stop a train providing everything is in full good order

Yeah, of course the 330 kit are excellent stoppers. I had them overhauled by RCM, before fitting - so they work perfect, etc.

But I really......REALLY!......love my brakes.

So the more the merrier.

the larger discs are on a totally different mounting PCD but yes we have converted quite a number by manufacturing custom bells, etc. as required.........

OKay Ian, so would I have to get all my calipers/bells/discs removed and couriered to you for you to carry out the necessary work? Or is it just custom bells, with the revised PCD that are needed (along with new 356mm discs, obviously)?

What about caliper extenders - are they needed, too?

Do you have a ballpark figure of the cost involved (PM if you like)?


Revo Millies are now on the motor BTW -- lovin' 'em like hell!

would simply need a bracket and caliper and we can sort the rest from there for you, best to contact the office direct re; costs, etc. and can easily be sorted

Oops sorry! I was rushing and assumed it was Ian that posted (I didn't take in the poster - just vaguely noticed it was from an advertiser). Fail.

So you'd need me to send you one caliper and.... a bracket? What bracket?
