James, I don't know of anyone else buying kits from them. The first initial kit I received, they supplied the wrong calipers and wouldn't change them. In the end I went to Geoff at Hi-Spec in Dartford. He does wilwood stuff.

Dan,

Does this mean you have some Wilwood kit fitted?

If so, what do you think? Done any track days?

Do they take OE shape pads or do they need their own pad design?

Cheers!

James, I did have a Wilwood kit to start off with, but changed to AP 4 then 6 pots!

I swapped due to the supply of the WRONG kit!

I have seen the new Wilwood calipers and think they are quite strong! Speak to Geoff at Hi-Spec. He can supply Wilwood if you are interested or he can AP.
