brake manufacturers
after reading about CDF racing's new brake kit's i was having a look around and need some info or advice on a few company's, ksport, kad, stoptech, hi spec, compbrake and Willwood. These seemed to be the most reasonably priced kit's. If any one has used any of the above please shed some light. Cheers

I've bought a few sets of Compbrake kits from Tony at 909sport, some for rally use some for street use. Fitted on everything from a Volvo 240 to Escort Cosworth. They're all happy with them. The Volvo used Wilwoods before, but even the standard Volvo calipers were better than the Wilwoods.

Running some K-sport 330mm 8 pots. Been awesome so far!
Any further info on that? As I understand, the K-sport calipers don't use conventional dust seals because they don't need to.

I had a s2 with hi spec 4 pots and they were shit IMO only slightly better than standard.
I have a focus rs with standard brembos and braided lines which are really good.
I have orderd some k sport 8 pots with 360mm discs for my Leon cupra track car I'm hopeing they will be good
