There Goes Charlie

Has anyone fitted these brakes and if so are they on a par with AP

I can tell you that they were rated higher than the 328mm Brembo kit during a recent magazine write up on a USDM WRX. Maybe on par with the APs. I would hesitate to say better than the APs, though.

thanks for your reply
these brakes look a good buy as they are cheaper than the opposition

Sure, m8. My honest gut feeling (keep in mind I don't own either brake kit) is that the Stoptech kit is *nearly* the same performer for less $$$. Everyone in the US that has them, loves them. However, few people in the US have AP kits.

Have you had prices and any further supply details Charles?

Have been looking into them and they got rated better than 'twice the price' Brembos...
