Let me know first impressions between these and the six pots. Be very interested to hear as I'll be making a similar decision shortly.

The Ultimates ARE 6 pots, do you mean compared to the factory Brembo 6 pots? My 4 pot Harrops crap all over Brembo 6 pots, can only just imagine how well the Ultimates work!!

Sorry should have specified. Yes meant how they compare against the brembos.

Yeh I'll either be looking at the monoblocs or the ultimates I think. But the brembos do have a better price tag. But the old saying goes ......

Do the lower control arm bush (think that was the one) that decent brakes kill on FG's. The 6 piston brembos are know to do this so I can only imagine these will be harder on suspension.

Will post some feedback and pics once these are fitted. Kit was ordered 2 weeks ago, still awaiting delivery (should be Monday), seems these are made to order, well at least the rotors and hats are. Thanks for the heads up on the control arm bushings Bomber, might look at ordering some first thing next week.

That would be great. Looking forward to it.

Do you also know if the ultimates come in a front only package like the monoblocs or whether it's F & R only ?

The upper and lower rubber ones in particular get torn out. It also works the front inner of the tyres pretty hard as they flex. Personally, I'd do the superpro's.

AFAIK these are only available as a complete kit. I'm sure Harrop would supply just the fronts if that's what you wanted but probably not advised due to the amount of brake bias it would introduce.

^^ absolutely spot on . Haha, called them and they said exactly the same thing. So looks like I'm stuck with the choice of brembos or harrop monoblocs ?

Looking forward to hearing the review regardless.
