Default 6 pot upgrade?

I currently have some 4 pot AP calipers and 330mm two piece discs, im toying with the idea of treating my legacy to a set of 6pots and some larger discs.

So im looking the following options:

6 pot AP's
6 pot SCR's
6 pot D2's

Is there anything else to consider out there?

It doesnt have to be new, can be a decent used setup that i can rebuild, but with new pads and discs for sure

Im looking for something about 350-360mm in disc size


Im looking at ones that are easy to service, plenty of pad and off the shelf disc options and are suitable for boring daily driving and can step up to anything you could throw at it on track. Needs to be good for a car of about 400bhp at most weighing about 1500-1600kg

So im after the best value for money setup the has great build quality and reliabilty without a hefty price tag. I might only see the track a few times a year but, for those spirited mountain drives etc i want some decent brakes

Cheers

I just bought a set of 6 pot APs from graham Goode as they have a deal on at the moment, the ad lists only for 5x114.3 but after speaking to them they have re drilled the bells to 5x100 so workes out a really good deal!

I phoned and spoke to glenn today as my discs were away being drilled as well and I'm sure he said they were all sold now.
