2 pots gone,brake upgrade done
 
Had some spare time today off work,so decided to fit the 4 pot calipers and black diamond grooved and drilled discs ive aquired over the last week or so,car is a my00 jap import wagon,which strangly came with the dreaded 2 pots as standard

original 2 pot brake set up as it left japan

calipers painted smooth hamerite red and white,disc centers painted black to try to stop the rusting that my original discs had

Really nice upgrade!

I am just doing mine but not getting 4 pots, just uprated disc's and pads. Hopefully i won't regret that.

What size Disc's are they on 4 pot?

2 pots i think are 277mm.4 pots are 294mm,but with the 4 pots its possible to upgrade again to 330 i think with adapter brackets and caliper spacer off godspeed..... some time down the line maybe,the guy i got the discs off has done this and its looks great

so what do you think after the 4 pot upgrade? is it much better than the 2 pot?

not had time to bed in the pads to the discs fully as yet,but so far they do feel better than the 2 pots,beats me why the car came with them in the first place

A very sensible upgrade and a good looking mod to boot.
