Try Godspeed, he is a scoobynet member and a well respected brake specialist. He fitted my Brembo discs and calippers and did a top job, he even grooved the discs for me.

I probably wont be the first to recommend him either, top bloke

Thats bloody cheap Ian. Any chance of Pm'ing me a price on a set of AP 6 pots with 335mm discs as I want to go back to 17's. Have a set of gold Brembos with a set of discs that you drilled and grooved for me a little while back but looking for track use now.

Not looking to buy for a couple of months but nice to know what I'm looking at.

I have the 335mm kit with AP 6 pots on offer at the moment for £1200 down from £1400 , drop me a line when your ready to order to see what offer are on then , When choosing a caliper , I would go for either billet ones or forged calipers as they are a lot stronger , some of the cheap kits being offered from China are just cast alloy ones and arn't as strong. The AP calipers are about the best you can get

Cheers Ian
