Front Brake Upgrade to suit BA XR8.

FPV8U · 21-07-2009, 02:17 PM

Hey mate after some advice on a brake upgrade for my XR.

Looking to get into some track work later this year and thinking my current brakes and the new ones i have in reserve (PBR Upgrade) won't be up to the task.

Can you give me a price on AP/Brembo/Harrop/Whaterver is a good value for money replacement?

No after V8SC brakes but something that isn't going to fade after 2 laps on the circuit.

Thanks for your time.

Not a problem and we can do something with front and rears from $4800 for 4/4 set up or from $5500 for 6/4 set up.We can also do a 4pot front and single pot rears which work well from $3500 to $4500 if stock is available.Wheel size and budget will determine the outcome in most cases but let me know what range your in and wheel size and i will see what i can do.

Ideally around 3K bit a can go a tiny bit over if need be.

I have 18" FPV GT Wheels from the Mk1 & II BA GT's.

Yeah i just noticed you have the wheels listed there i should have read that yesterday.The 4/1 set up with brembo 4 piston fronts and 355mm rotors along with rear 328mm rotors and single piston caliper and braided lines for $3500.00 would be the best option.Fitting is extra but is quiet easy to do.There isn't anything cheaper on the market that will do.
