If so, I think the calipers Hazey has are different. I'm not 100% sure, but I think the PBR kits supply C6 calipers and 325mm rotors - Hazey has C5 calipers and 355mm rotors. But both appear to be the same 32mm thickness.And, as you know, the BA premium brake package uses the same rear calipers as stock - the PBR upgrade kit just supplies them powder coated in red.

C5's have fins... me no understand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You gotta laugh that our cars didn't come with 4pots standard loads of the little light weight jap cars do. I've already changed rotors to slotted front and rear and pads to Ferodos looking for better braking and I'm still not completely happy. But I cant afford the Brembos.
