Hi,

As per the title, I am trying to get some information on what would be a good setup on a budget to improve the rear brakes and also to balance the braking as I will be getting a pair of gold Brembo 4 Pot Calipers and Performance Friction Disc's installed up front.

I want to replace the stock items but want something that is not too costly however would like to retain a good brake balance between front and rear. I had a look at the Brembo conversion and this doesn't seem to difficult, I believe Ian of Godspeed is doing the kits now but they are £195 a pop which does push my budget over if I go for gold 2 pot Brembo's on the rear (they are not cheap even second hand, probably because they are rare beasts).

What other options are there apart from Brembo's? I want something like 2-Pot or 4-Pot that will give a good balance and take some track abuse when I hit Bedford Autodrome next year.

Cheers,

Fz

I've got the Godspeed conversion with 316mm discs and gold, (but refinished in red ) Brembos on the rear of my classic.

My Brembos and discs came from GradeA, delivered next day, £200 all in.

I've posted quite a detailed thread on the conversion about two months ago in this forum.

should be ok on the standard rear brakes, iirc thats what zen's track car runs. (they may have changed them now though)

Agreed, they are OK standard, but mine wanted new discs and pads, and I was fed up of the view of the tiny old discs and single pot calipers under my 17's
