Wilwood Brakes

Anyone here running them on their turbo?

I'm looking at the 283mm Discs and midlite 4 pots package

What do people think of them.

Please do not suggest AP i cannot afford them!!

Yeah, good deduction mate!

I was thinking the same, I think NUTS RuS, obviously wants AP performance from a Wilwood price, which lets face it aint gonna happen.

you get what you pay for in my experience!

Agree mate

If your going to be trashing it around a track wilwoods probably aren't the best choice..........go for AP

But for on the road think wilwoods are sufficient
