Brembo don't do 378! Are we talking genuine 380 Brembo discs with the correct 8 pot caliper? If so and they are new I will take all he has!!

Discs are £400 each, Calipers are £1500 each and a set of pads are £200.. That's not including bells, brackets and Brembo's expensive floating bobbins!! Far too good to be true if new.

I spec'd DS3000's in that kit because Harvey mentioned track use. Caron met pads are fine but the eat discs.

I think you may be referring to a conversation you had with me. The kit I bought from A1 Rallysport consisted of the following:

6 pot Brembo calipers and pads (brand new)
378 discs (second hand)
The bells and brackets were also supplied by Steve within the price.

If you need any more info then just phone Steve Scott. Hope this helps.
