Look at the Ksport or AP 4 pots, these dont need stripping down as often, I think the willwoods are much more prone to dirt intrusion due to their design.
Group buy section is a good place to look, brembo's come up fairly regulary but all 3 mentioned need 17 inch wheels and only certain wheels will accommodate the brembo's.

No not worth buying, a brand new set of ksports inc pads and discs is like less than 700 quid, the willwoods may well need servicing to start with then you have the discs and pads, your looking at that 700 quid then....

Willwoods are really light aren't they? Chap on here with a 700hp Scoob used them to save weight (Clive?).

If you want to use the Wilwood calipers then contact Ian Godney (Godspeed Brakes) and he should be be able to advise you of any problems problems and costings.

The 4 pot Comp Brake (Porsche) setup for sale on here is a very good setup if you get the right pads for them - I had Ferodo DS2500 on mine when I had a Hawkeye WRX and found them to be very good.
