Default Front Two Pot Brakes - wanted.

Before I go over to the Wanted page, get bombarded by numpty's or idiots (there is a difference) I'll ask the Welsh Massive and stay local. It's all part of the keeping it real idea and original.

(Ty, take note - )

Does anyone have any MY 96/97/98 two pot front brakes hanging about in the back of the garage? Those in very good condition will be most appreciated, with discs would be good but not essential.

Drop me a PM.

Lads, I am torn between OE and stopping. Stopping is winning. 53, that would be great if you have both.

Hand on heart the 2 pots are a bit poo but with decent discs and pads they are sufficient for road as long as you're not piling into every corner Vettel style

You must go 4 pot at least.
My 2 pots used to fade terrible.

When you asked I thought they were short term while you had a set refurbed lol.

Have you suffered a bump to the head?

To be honest I wouldn't even bother with 4 pots
