Bigger bhp doesn't mean you need bigger brakes.
If you go to 400bhp with your car. You'll still stop the same at 30mph etc as you did having 230bhp |
AP Racing. buy proper. buy once.

Not necessarily no but he doesn't have any AP's, he has a set of 6 pot fronts and 4 pot rears so if the discs are big enough I'd fit them over the brembos...and save £3k+ on not having AP's...personally, although i do have AP's on the rear but I didn't pay for them :lol1:

i was wondering about upgrading to the wildwoods

Well that's it mate I have a full set just sitting in my work shop so this is y I was going to put them one to don't need to spend a lot then

If they are Wilwood Superlites then they don't have dust seals and therefore are not suitable for normal road use. Fine if it's a track toy or hill climbs.
In my opinion the brembo's would be a better option. There is a reason Wilwoods (and K sports) are cheap. You get what you pay for! |
