I need a 4 pot conversion urgently. I have 2 pots at the moment and my discs are almost dead. Don't really want to replace the disc's but would prefer to upgrade.

Cheers

Hi maffa,
Had bought TSLs 6 pot upgrade to go on my RB5, however after smashing that up they never went on. Have now put deposit down on P1 and the dealer has put the TSL ones on the car for me and is obviously giving me those brakes back. They are standard 4 pot brakes that came with the P1. I should picking the car up from Colchester on Friday. If you have not come across any by then, you are more than welcome to have mine.

Hi MAFFA,

I was also looking for 4 pots a last week and got a set privately.

I tried a few brakers and the only ones that had them in stock where Glenburgie Subaru

Their prices are not the cheapest, but just now I think, demand is out weighing supply

I paid £200 for a mint set from a V plate.

I have seen full kits (discs, calipers and pads) from an MY01 WRX for £250

Okay thanks for the help guys. Mikey if the condition of the discs & pads is good then how about £200.00 cash & i'll collect after work on Friday? I work in Crawley

Gimme a bell at work on Friday on 01293 604993 coz at the moment finding some others is a pain & it's a bonus that you're so near. No worries of postage

Hi Maffa,
Glad to hear that they have cleaned up ok! Probably took a while as they were in a bit of a mess!
It was a stroke of luck that you wanted a set and i had a set up for grabs after having the 6 pots fitted to the P1, i am glad to know that they have gone to a good home. I will have a look to see what they look like on your motor at the next meet i attend.
