Its really difficult to add your name to a list without confirmed prices, but I also understand it will depend on numbers. Chicken and egg...
A good way to do it is to ask suppliers for a GB price based on 5+ and 10+. But even then it will be difficult to get big interest in an item over £1k.
I'd be interested in the price for a 6 pot and 4 pot set-up.
I require brakes of some kind after selling my AP 4pots recently. I have also been looking at the K-Sport 8pots and even Brembo's with PF discs and pads.
Would be worth asking Iain at godspeed. I seem to remember he gave me the best prices I could find for AP's.

Its very difficult to get a good deal on complete AP kits as the discount they offer is small to the dealers , they keep the prices high on the kits , so you will find very little off the retail prices.
The only way I can offer them a lot less on the kits I sell , is that as I use my own make discs , bells and brackets , and as such , have much smaller overheads.

Obviously you can put me down for a CP5570-1000.G8
If comp grey, that would be perfect, but as Ian said, I doubt that AP racing will ever give in on prices...
My car is MY99 STI Version 5 Type R.
However, if AP gives in, I am also interested in: CP7615-1002.G8
Rear kit as well...
We'll see. To me it is strange, since they have already made their money on the R&D, testing etc. Sold so many kits, the cars using these becoming older by the minute, so would be nice if they would cut some slack...
Anyways, I hope our quest will be a lucky one this time.
Cheers,
R.

Its a lot of cash to spend. It's never easy to get big numbers on aGB going for an item of this value. After all your looking at around:-
£900 for 4-pot front
£1,200 for 6-pot front
£950 for 4-pot rear
(Just a guide!!)
Plus alot of people that are running cars that require this amount of stopping power already have these or alternatives fitted.

I remember reading here that the lowest Genuine AP kit went for 1250 GBP total for the 6 pot fronts (do not remember where and when... )
It is unbelievable how much AP is not up to a "favour", because we can phrase it anyway we want, this would be a favour from them and not really a business. Though I do not understand still that they have made their fair share of money on the Classic kits already, so why not cut us some slack for a 10-12 year old car...
Anyways, let's see how many people come together for the same cause and hope the best...

The only prices I had to hand were your kits using AP calipers
I'm not even sure they are "up to date" TBH.
Feel free to up date me.
and again PM me if you wish

So tempted but I'm waiting for some money to come. Which could be a month or so and I'd be looking at the 355 6pot front and 4pot rear.
Quite happy to have a set off Ian and have his discs, used him plenty of times

Aye, come on Ian. Make us an offer we can't refuse
You know you want to. Never had an issue with any of your products. Still running your discs on my newage. Great price on my Alcon fitment pads. Plus you did a great job refurbing my last set of AP 4-pots, still got some of that DOT 5.1 brake fluid left too. I also need a set of 4-pots refurb'd soon
Is that enough sucking up or is more required

If it's a genuine AP kit you're after, put the RRPs up and you may get a small % discount.
You won't pick up a bargain basement deal on the APs, so most people may drop out of the GB if that is what they are looking for.
By all means after you have the RRPs up and people are still interested in a GB I can take a look at it for you.

Hi Steve
I cannot move anymore on those prices sorry , these are the prices of my last group buy about a year ago , but have had price increases in both the calipers and the Ferodo pads , these prices are £150 - £200 less than they are advertised on my web site , and a massive saving on the price of the full AP kits
Cheers Ian

THanks Ian. I already have your 4 pot kit & they do fit under the rims but there is about 2mm of clearance, is that a problem & is it the same with the 6 pots?
Can use the 4 pots on the rear, with the appropriate discs?
