Oh and your AP look cool, but I don't think the callipers look that great
Personal choice.
Old school AP or new school Hi-Spec

rsjp

low spec brakes ,how many race teams do you see using them,none i think , as you said personal choice but when you are using the car and brakes to there potential you need to be assured they are of the best quality ,ap ,brembo ,alcon are the best of the best , ap old school i dont think so, ap brakes are still on the most of the fastest cars in the world i think that speaks for itself

cossymad

How many Road cars use Slick tyres???
None
In fact what relevance does that have on a road car?
I never said anything about Hi-spec being better than AP, just look better.

had to send my hi spec 6 pots back as they didnt fit at all! now got ap's,no problem

Toad_RS

ap , it is then

Micky

Lo -spec brakes are pure rubbish,and so is the service you get from Geoff Bedding the owner.He takes youre money but wont send on the brakes.When i finally got them 6 months later they didnt fit!!!!!He's a gangster,his workmanship is dodgy and I'd never deal with him or recommend him to anyone.Here's another chap who also had trouble

WHY FUCK ABOUT WITH SHITE BRAKES, WITH BAD SERVICE AND POOR QUALITY when for near enough the same cost you could get a set of AP's or brembos?? speak to rsjp or cossybrom, they both do very very good deals on PROPER brake kits, not shonky overpriced under-performing crap that might happen to look a bit trick

rsjp

well said will

Rs Gus

iTrader: (2)

like i said john you CANT beat propper brakes and any one who says different hasent had propper brakes only cheap shitty alternative what are WANK mmmmm do u see subaru/ford/mitsubishi/peugot/skoda wrc teams using LO-SPEC i dont think so or other teams touring car teams etc NO i rest my case go and play with your chocolate breaks

cossiecrew

gutted i was gonna buy some hi spec monter 6s aswell glad i read this first

Rs Craig

ap's all the way i had nightmare dealings with jeff the puddin you only get what you pay for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! his bells were thicker at some points than others and this caused my discs to not spin tru......................shite workmanship i will never use him ever again.............................

iTrader: (3)

I wouldn't fit HiSpec to my push bike......... we had a kit and all but 1 of the bolts holding the disc to bell broke and the answer from HiSpec was ......."ooooo don't know how that could have hapened"......
