Default Brembo's coming!!!! Now arrived!!!!

Many thanks SSS
Managed to get a 2 x full sets, Calipers, disc's, clips and all the other bits, front and rear!!!! £600 a set

I am picking them up on Tuesday (27th). Renowheel are stripping and repainting mine red for £40, everyone as Gold Brembo's but I am going to be different.

Dan W is having the other set and Wide wants my current 4 pots.
It's all worked out nicely really.

Excellent, thats the set that i got and for the cash i dont think it can be faulted

Red behind the white will look slick

just waiting on Andy at ace to finalise the rear mountings and then drill my discs and will be away

Any idea on prices si? dean did say that the rear brake shoes were more expensive than first thought

cheers

Ian

Well have picked them up and am very disappointed.

They have some dust on them

I had a great idea to get them painted red but they are BRAND F**KING NEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Discs, pads, everything...............am very excited really.

SSS is now my hero

So they are going to stay gold.

I have two spare sets of 114 mm PCD Front discs for an STi, OE Subaru, Spanking new, so make me an offer???

Wales forum first then off to the General Parts for sale.

yep, Godspeed.

He charges £25 for redrilling and £50 to have them groved

You could have a word with SSS, to see where he had his done, I think he had his done in work, might be a cheaper option

Greg got mine done
I've not bothered with drilling or grooving going to keep the OE look here.

Ian/Dan will you be fitting them or will you be talking with Andy ? I think you will find that Andy will also be able to get the PCD drilled out for you.
If your going for braided hoses which I would recommend doing have a talk with Gordon from Motorsport World - Performance Car Parts tell him what you are doing as they are a special order and let him know I sent you, they do SIDC discount as well

IIRC I was quoted around £80 when I asked in the begining for PCD and grooves.

I had a chat with Andy last week. Once I've picked up the brakes I've arranged to pop in and discuss the fitting method with him.

Go for it mate , there straight bolt on for yours, no modification needed, Si has a contact for brand new (delivery mileage) full sets (front and rear) for £600.

Only thing you would need is to get the disc's drilled to the correct PCD.
