Brake calipers

[kenmorton]

Amyone got any views on 4 pot callipers from AP, Brembo, Hispec and Wilwood.

i've got willwood superlites (4pot) on the Chimaera

and Ap racing 4pots on the racing wedge.

no problems with either both seem to work fantastically.

some people though have had sproblems with the superlites warping but mine are fine after 2 years.


just dont got near Hi-Tech... mind you even if you did they would never turn up...

Good selection of kits at Rally Design.

Yes, mine are fine on the V8S.

Have to agree with you there too. Have to mind my language when I'm talking about them!

wilwoods flexed on my wedge.
hi-spec currently on car but wouldn't be if I could afford to change them......
original APs (Princess not AP racing) were best overall with upgraded disks and pads!

I use Brembo's, road version all ally caliper as used in Brembo's own Gran Turismo kits but on my own brackets. Fully dust sealed so no problems in road use terms. Plenty stiff and integral fluid crossovers mean that hasty wheel changes in the pits don't risk the fluid transfer lines.

How about some Brembo / Porsche monobloc ally calipers from a Boxster/996 ? I paid £120 for a used pair from Germany , £8 and 2 days to ship .
