Big brake kit using the new AP 6 pots
 

Been waiting on delivery of the new AP 6 pot calipers , the CP9040 , which is the next caliper up from the popular 7040 we have used for the last 6 years or so.

Dimension wise they are the same as the 7040 , same mounting points , same piston size , and same shape pad , pads are important as they are cheap for the size of them , The DS2500's , PF Z rated , EBC orange and blues are just some of the pads available , and all priced under £145 a set.

The calipers are a much nicer design , and are now powder coated so have a hard shiny finish , and are still available in black or red , one main advantage is the calipers are now forged where as the 7040 calipers were cast , so will be a lot stronger , and also comes with bridge bolts to reduce any flex even further.

We have just made a kit up and sent it our yesterday to the customer , we can offer the kit with 330mm discs to fit under 17" wheels , or a 355mm kit to fit under 18" wheels , or even use the AP 363mm disc again for 18" wheels

I'm looking to upgrade mine soon. do you offer a fitting service?

Yes we do , we have a ramp in the workshop , we charge £100 for fitting inc fluid drive in drive out

Cheers Ian

perfect, i will be in touch soon. Cheers, Steve.

they look good but ive never liked the bubble type logo on ap's

Not bad priced Ian :-)

How much of an upgrade will this 330mm 6pot kit be over your original AP Racing 4 pot 330mm setup?
How much extra will it be for DS3000's?

Are the discs a common AP Racing PCD so if needed in the future could run PFC rotors?
Car will be used for track/sprint use, so welcome your recommendation.

Finally are these prices inclusive of VAT?

Thanks

You will notice the difference more going from 4 to 6 pots on the track , braking consistently from high speed would be much better , we have DS3000's on the shelf so could include those at no extra cost.

On this kit we use a PCD of 10 x 192mm which is different to the AP 330mm discs , and the reason for this is the width of the pads , The pad the 9040 caliper uses is 8mm wider than the pads for the AP5200 calipers , so if you try to fit them on a 330mm AP disc the pads will overhang the inside edge and rub on the bells.

I guess you can machine the inside radius of the pads to suit , but then your losing overall performance by fitting a smaller pad.
Our 330mm discs in this kit are also slightly thicker than the AP discs , AP more common 330mm discs are 28mm thick , ours are 30mm , the extra thickness certainly helps with heat .

Hope this helps
Cheers Ian

Brilliant, thanks Ian answers my questions.
Will definitely be taking a set off you with the 3000's.

How well do you think your discs will last/cope with track use?

Are you able to provide me with a VAT invoice?

Had best get the old ones off and sold!

Thanks

Tom

Hi Tom
No problem with the discs on the track , I offer a 12 month guarantee against them warping even if you do track days , so you will have no worries there , we supply our discs to a lot of track dayers , rally and race cars and very rarely get any issues.

Yes the kit will come with a vat invoice

Cheers Ian

Brilliant, can't ask for any better backup than that!

Are you able to over the discs with different groves in them - eg Hook groves instead?

Thanks again for your time.

Tom

We are in the process of writing programmes for different style grooves at the moment , so will be able to offer them
Cheers Ian

Price with 363mm ap discs please

How do these compare to the 4pot cp6600 caliper with 330mm disc?

We can offer them with AP 363mm discs , and our own bells and brackets for £1650

Very similar at lowish normal speeds , the 6 pots would be better at higher speeds , and far better braking from very high speeds as in track days

Cheers Ian

You should keep 6pot brembos You lemon

have you been drinking?

Any options in line for 304mm setups? For us guys running 16's

Cheers

Ian - you have a PM :-)

Thanks

Yes seen it , just looking into race spec calipers for you

These look sexy.

You got them in red yet, and in Widetrack fitment?

I'd be looking for the 330mm set, as prefer my 17s for track.

Any plans for a 4pot 304mm kit

Yes they are available in red , but cost slightly more , machining them for either , or both PCD is not a problem


Yes we can offer you a 304mm kit using the CP5200 calipers , or the race 5040 which are basically the same but have no dust seals , and are finished in a grey anodised finish , the 5200's are either black or red , we can offer you that kit with a choice of pad for £1295.

We can offer the same kit for 17" wheels with 330mm discs for the same price

Cheers Ian

I'll be honest that seems a pretty good price Ian, do you have any pictures of the kit? What is the pad choice? Assuming these will go under most 16's

hmmm, is the 355 the biggest disk size ian?

Don't have any pics of that kit sorry , basically looks like the kit above but with 4 pots , can supply Ferodo , MIntex , PF , CL , EBC pads



No we can make a kit with AP 363mm rotors

Ian, do you do the 355mm disk to fit AP bells, and can I have a price, thx

any ideas on price? also its for E46 m3 fitment

Hi how much for this kit to the rep. Of Ireland ? And also can you get them in sti gold or a custom colour ?
thanks
