Ive got the frs setup on the front with 330mm ap discs/allybells.
And to be honest they are a bit OTT

sorry to hijack the thread theres some well nice setups here ive got esc cos wheels on my pickup would any of these setups fit underneath cos hi spec quote around the 700 quid mark

blueskies85

some nice set ups being shown here... ill give tenner to the first person who can do a stoppy! Twins how much did your set up cost if you dont mind me asking and how simple was it? Are we talking cossie upgrade simple or Nasa space program simple? I admire your car and all your work mate I really do! Did you change the master cylinder for focus Rs item?

ST170 brakes are a good kit to fit to the S2, Not overkill.

My daily driver has a set of standard calipers and Ferodo DSPn's and 2wd cossie discs. It is worth the work if you need new discs but dont expect massive improvement. Initial braking is no better but the initial hard bite you get lasts a little longer, if that makes any sense.

My offering .... 335 x 28mm Brembo Porsche calipers bells / rotors / braided lines / pads brackets etc Available in other colours too

Twins

I did a deal with my st 170 set up and some cash for these ,then i got a hub and got a local firm to make up the brackets for me still on the s2 master cylinder

Fuck Me!!! You could stop the world spinning with those bad boys! PMSL

Eggburt

mine, Focus RS Discs, the calipers are off a 360 and custom made brackets. Bit over the top but looks cool.

blueskies85

So are they on machined s2 hubs or focus rs hubs? I could put a bracket through CAD at work tbh and am sorely tempted to do so... I dont know about the idea of running larger alloys though as im mega happy with mine.... What size are yours Twins? they look around the 17 mark. Cheers!!!

jammerrs

NUTS RuS what size wheels are they?

they look wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide

standard offset 17's as far as I know - car belongs to someone off here

Cossie 4 pots with high spec bells and rotas. Not as nice as Brembos but cheap and plenty big enough to haul and RST down.

Micky

Please,for the love of God,don't give youre money to Lo Spec,as the chances of that company f*cking you around are very big.Give Nuts RuS on here a call,Tony's a top man,no messing.And his brakes are rally proven.Regards,Micky

got to say, i contacted NUTS RuS a while back for a quote on a set of them huuuuuuuuge brakes, n its pleasantly suprising how much cheaper they work out than similar items elsewhere, plus unlike elsewhere i got the info almost straight away, not emails answered weeks later or calls never returned lol

Adam R4

Looking good them tony, I looked at some on a 911 at goodwood

bigryrs

iTrader: (10)

Twins

iTrader: (18)

Just a s2 hub untouched ,the wheels are 7.5jx17et 35

marky_g

blueskies85

im likeing the ap,s very much but out of my budget, the focus rs brakes look good and im sure they give good stopping power is it just a case of getting some brackets made is there sombody who sells them?

blueskies85

i cant believe they sell this shit... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Disc-brake-cal...1%7C240%3A1318

Had a look on ebay for brembo calipers and these came up... absolutely ridiculous!

jammerrs

^^^ they look good brakes buy those

blueskies85

lmao!

Puss2

iTrader: (5)

Tony those porsche brakes what kind of price and what does it say on the side?

blueskies85

i can lay my hands on brembos and discs off a leon cupra r, brand new for 350 quid... dont know whether thats a good deal or not

RSandy

iTrader: (1)

calipers say 'compbrake' i do believe

wud check old pm's for a price i was quoted, but 1 it may well be out of date, and 2 i appear to have deleted the old pm's lol

Puss2

iTrader: (5)

Dont need an exact price just a rough idea cheers mate

edit to say dont worry found Tonys post about them in the traders room

Raj_FRST

ive just bought st170 front discs and calipers and rear beam with cosworth rear calipers and discs (not sure if 2/4wd) fitted for the total price of £260. Not had chance to fit them yet and also dont know if thats a good price, apparantly I just need to open the bolt holes for the callipers, (its a fiesta rs turbo by the way)
I want some bigger ones now after looking at this thread!!! they look awsome

NUTS RuS

iTrader: (35)

RSAndy not all calipers are logo'd some can come unlogo'd (plain) from the factory ready for any logo to be applied.

Some sets are milled in the manufacturers factory with the "Compbrake" logo as specials.

Does what it says on the side affect how they work ?

New one on me that one

I sometimes have ones in that we have used for trial fitting or ex display models that have done zero miles but are sold off cheaper - so its always worth asking

Twins

iTrader: (18)

You got them yet ,bargin at that price

rickbartlett

wots the gain of putting cossie discs wiv rst calipers???

makaveli96

Wow love those ferrari calipers how much did that set you all back if you don't mine me asking mate?
