Hi all

Does anybody have any experience of PFC brake calipers and discs?

They do a caliper that would ideal for my car that is reasonably priced, just not had any dealings with them.

Thanks

Can't comment on their discs or calipers - but I switched to their pads in 2013 and was immediately convinced.

My application was for 40 to 90 min endurance races in an Elise. Initial bite was excellent but not snatchy or as aggressive as the Pagid RS-14's I'd previously used. Temperature transfer was very quick. Modulation and feel is brilliant. No fade or degradation. Love them.

I can't comment on their calipers but use their grooved discs and 01 pads on a EVO V1 hillclimb/sprint car. They work well from cold and have no fade issues. A bit dusty and sometimes noisy but that's the trade-off when using competition materials I guess. I'm on my second set so obviously happy with them.

Likewise to the above I have no experience with their calipers or rotors, but if their pads are anything to go by I would expect them to be top draw kit...

Carrera Cup UK for all of last season. By all accounts, pretty excellent.

I have used 01 and 08 compound on a Radical, 01s are great and wear quicker, 08s there is a split second lag when you press the peddle but they last much longer. They seem to stop the car similar but have found the 08s have faded with very heavy use. Discs are Radicals finest ford xr3 no idea what make the calipers are.

PFC tech is very good. They have helped greatly when needed.
