see theres a theres a good bit of intrest already , mostly people from sidc as well [:D]

i spoke to somebody today with the AP 6 pots and he said they were immense!  [H]

Agreed. About 10% is the most you'll get off, but well worth every penny. You won't believe the difference in driver confidence and stopping distances you can get with decent brakes, especially from high speeds.

Have registered my interest Colin. [:P]

I agree i'm not expecting discount hand over fist but always said these would be the first serious mod on the RA as i quickly remembered how bad the OEM 4-pots are after buying it. [:P]

You're right. But if you fitted the 4-pots i'd wholly expect you to be entirely underwhelmed with the difference.

Colin, my fingers are crossed here too. I'll break the bank for them lol.

Is it true that a decent set of 2 pots can be set up well with proper discs and pads to rival the 4 pots - due to 4 pots suffering from more heat soak (or something like that)???

I could easily imagine that to be the case Brian. The best discs i had on my 4-pots and currently have on my new car are Tar-Ox ones. I'd imagine these discs with suitable pads on 2-pots vs standard discs/pads on 4-pots to be fairly similarly matched. Even with the Tar-Ox discs and braided hoses the 4-pots on the RA are just far too marginal for the cars performance, hence why i said the first big money i'd spend on it would be on AP's.

To be honest i've probably got a bit to gain just by changing the fluid but while i'm down there i may as well changed the calipers, discs, bells, pads etc. [:P]

"while I'm down there" - I like that quote - I can something similar "While I was online, I thought I may as well just buy it then to save time" etc with the wife

What is your car Carl & any pics?

Yeah i like it, much less bling this time. [H]

Finally getting to the end of 'going through the motions' fitting the Defi's, Knocklink etc. Hopefully get the wheels on soon which will make a big difference with fresh rubber. Then some brakes perhaps!?

I have been a spirited run in Jools's weapon with these bad boys fitted. Words cannot express how good these are. They will rearrange your body akin to the days of Automan ! Nofade and instant stopping power. Harnesses recommended !
