Does any one have any experience or comments of the brakeman kit c/w ds2500 pads in terms of performance or quality.

I would be grateful for any info, good or bad, you can mail me off line if you wish.

Thanks Simon

Simon, for the money that these kits are, you might be better off looking at an AP 4 pot kit.

PS. The Brakeman kit does look very nice mind you.

Better value (if you have 17" wheels) is the TSL Hi Spec 6 pot kit.
Billet alloy 6 pot calipers, alloy bells with steel rotors (335mm dia & 35mm thick)DS2500 pads and braided hoses. £1380 inc vat or a bit cheaper through the new scoobynet shop thingy.
Excellent brakes and I'm sure they help me avoid an accident when someones grandad pulled out in front of me today...he said he didnt see me, so I suggested he hand his licence in [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]


OLD BRAKES (Subaru 4pots)


NEW BRAKES (TSL 6pots)


Excuse the dirty wheels in the pics
