ZS big brake kit

I'm after some bigger brakes for my ZS. Preferably something ready to bolt up and go!

Ross has some willwoods, Think they just need a quick refurb with new seals and one piston iirc. Think he said parts were ?24

Yer I think thats whats putting people off them, I refurbed my brembos and it wasnt hard at all, The biggest problem I had was a seized bleed nipple but wd40 and plenty of heat got that out

Well I was looking at calipers, there is a UK Wilwood supplier. I think I have found the correct ones - ?220 for a pair.

Thats a good price if they are the correct ones, although the kit ross has (came off my car) had brackets. So youd have to get those machined up. Then buy the discs,etc. Unless of course its a caliper that bolts straight on.

Other than that theres the AP set up that GTM and Dan have fitted to theirs. They look gorgeous but at ?1500+ bit pricy!!! Ive fitted the RT Brembo kit and they are bedding in well

Yer the calipers are quite chunky and the ademdums are even chunkier!! I was lucky Ive got pro race 1.2s and had 10mm clearance after fitting them!
