ebxmple Member 1,322 Member For: 16y 10m 26d Posted 26/02/11 07:26 AM Share Posted 26/02/11 07:26 AM Hi all,just wanted to find out what others have upgraded to with their BA brakes. Mines got the FPV premium upgrades on it but theyre sh*te. Im after black or blue calipers and dont really like the Brembos too much (my opinion). If anybody has any site links,pics or suggestions would be great,thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't like Brembos then you can look at AP Racing, Alcon etc.Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it takes is a few good runs at the strip and they get shudder. I have replaced rotors and pads 3 times in 4yrs and they work out to $720 each time. Im sure I could of got some descednt brakes for that much that would still be fine. Yeah,AP is what im looking at at the moment. Dont like the red to be honest so trying to get the black or silver.

If not what have you been replacing them with? AP is great gear from what I've heard but not cheap equipment.Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
