Gauging interest in my brakes
 
I'm considering getting some AP's or similar and thought I'd gauge interest first in my Tarox 6 pots with 310mm 2 piece disc's,the pads are literally like new with less than 500 miles use

Were the pads/discs dear to replace ?
And was there a noticable difference to stock 4 pots ?

i got discs and pads in with the deal, and yeah big stopping power

Alright mate,yes I noticed a big difference from stock 4 pots,the pads can vary on price depending on which brand you use[any where from 80 ish to 200] but these's pads are literally like new and the dics's do not have any lip at all so you wouldn't need to replace for a long while.

There is some slight surface rust on the disc's from being stood but after a very small drive it would clean them no problem as the car has been parked inside my workshop not out in the elements.

Cheers for that mate,

If you can get some other pictures of the set up please and/or before they were fitted ?

Still interested in them,
