Just a couple of questions, will 335mm discs fit with 17" alloys as fiited to a bug eye? Also is the 335mm upgrade with existing subaru 4 pots better than a godspeed 4 pot caliper + large disc upgrade?

I had the gspd with my standards bugeye alloys, they fit no probs, you fit a spacer between the calipers and opens them out about 8 mm aprox.
IF they're any better than the godspd calipers, don't know.

I contacted Ian from Godspeed and this is what he responded:



"I can offer you the kits for £575 including UK delivery , the kit will come with either grooved , drilled or grooved and drilled discs , if the customer is going to take part in track days stay away from drilled discs as they can crack around the holes , fitting kit and mounting brackets , and a choice of either redstuff ceramic , Mintex M1144's or Ferodo Ds2500 pads , and instructions

This price is based on at least 5 people taking part. "

So we need 4 more people.

Sadly not. You would have to set a new group buy for discs only.

I read that you have to 'split' the calipers in order to fit these - is this a very tough job? Can these be fitted on the drive at home with a decent set of tools?
