[scooby222]

got home yesterday to find my new brakes had arrived - 6 pot AP racing calipers with 360mm discs

cant wait to get them fitted, but first i need to decide on what pads to use, havent been too impressed with the ds2500's ive got on just now, and also whether to change the colour from black and yellow to brembo gold and red for full stealth marks

[badbaz]

You huvny!

:needpics:

Go on Dave

[mystery machine]

Sounds nice - let's see the money shot, Dave

Do they fit inside 17" rims, BTW?

[G.Mac]

no they wont fit under his 17's or thats the size of disc I would have gone for

Go on Dave, just stick them on the way they are, you know you want too

Anyways I'm off to have a look at my engine mounts as it has finaly dried up a bit.

graeme

[scooby222]

ok, ok here you go - calipers first

then the discs, used but less than 1mm of wear

bit thicker than standard

nope, aint fitting under 17's - this is the discs against the standard wheels

[StrikE]

Jesus titty fcuking christ Dave.............those are not small rotors

OK you win as there is NO WAY i am riding your bumper this year m8

congrats you lucky man

[Wee Jock]

Did they not come with pads? Pagid Blue!

[scooby222]

there is pads Paul but theyre pretty far down - as im a cheap skate i bought them 2nd hand but with very little use

havent tried pagids before, whatre they like for wear/noise/cold starts?

and Del as if your lardy ass could get anywhere near my bumper

very nice dave, monster brake size

i fitted my ickle version yesterday.

clearence was a bit tight had to remove wheel weights and add hammer on ones, good job local garage were still open.

this put me behind schedule when i was wanting away, cant say i followed proper bedding in procedure for new pads

mine came with near new ds2500 but i will leave them for track. went against my better judjment and went for ebc bluestuff as they seem to be getting good reviews, was after something more road use friendly. if they turn out to be crap they will be replaced with some 1144.

[scooby222]

looking good Euan!

you did a good job with the painting, look well tidy once your summer wheels and suspension are back on

let me know how you find the blue stuff - im planning to run 1144's or similar for road too

Pagid pads are awsome, they came recommended to me by Barretts Rally MotorSport who were British Rally Champions for a while! I have used them ever since, that has been the best part of 6 years! Got to admit I like a firm pedal as well!

[Wee Jock]

Where did you get them from, they look the bollox btw!

[ciaranrb5]

I have Pagid pads on my AP 6 pots seem ok so far circa 2k.

So now you have the same braking power as me all you need is

the power to keep up

[scooby222]

yes guy i sold it to sorted it before he sold it. Hope the boy sorted the dodgy rear axel

Good buy managing to get a set second hand they don't hang around long.

Mine are actually only 330mm 6 pots.

All in good time how bloody long do you need......
