4-pots are more than adequate with 6-pots only of any real benefit when running slicks.
Mocom Racing list 6-pots on their site, TBH I haven't used them for brake products but I did have some top mounts off of them earlier this year.

From personnel experience be careful with Godspeed.
I specifically ordered a set of 304mm discs to replace my AP discs, the discs turned up but were somewhat larger and did not fit.

There are two 6 pots versions for our cars completely differents.
The CP7040 caliper version (shown in Mocom Racing page) costs at least 200-300 pounds less than the other (http://www.apracing.com/roadcar/cali...family=CP5570).

Correct Jim, although the pictures are for illustration purposes only and do not always reflect the kit(s) available.
330mm discs to fit 17" wheel has a caliper adapted from racing and it is this kit we offer at the price on the website. The larger disc kit (355mm or 362mm) is special order only and uses the cheaper caliper you mention, this kit would be approx. £300 cheaper
Hope this helps.

I went to Godspeed to have the upgrade of the original brakes to the 335s. Ian did an excellent job and very helpful/friendly.
If I get the cash together to move up to some APs I'll be going there

I bought my 6-pots with 355mm discs from TSL for £1,495.

Have you tried here....about £1200 i think
www.leda.com/Christmas_Sale_2005.htm
The Galfer calipers are the same as the AP's , but in a different colour finish i believe.
Speak to beverley for a good deal..tell her jon/Arron with the rally car recommended them.
