Anyone running a Stoptech brake upgrade?

Post by romario » Thu Dec 16, 2004 10:09 pm

Spotted that Stoptech are coming to the UK NEC Autosport show and having seen quite a few motors running their brakes when in the USA wondered if any UK/European folk are utilising these kits.
Appreciate MovIt seems to be the defacto choice here, so just wondered if Stoptech have had a look in yet?

Cheers

I had them on a 300bhp Subaru Impreza which I tracked a few times. I did have some bother with pad deposits/warp after my first track, but this may have been my fault not cooling them down thoroughly enough (I did a 'no brakes' lap after the recommended bedding in procedure (brutal!!!) and then a hands off cool down for 1/2 an hour).

I also had some pad rattle with my pagid Blacks, but Blues were ok.

Matt Weiss at Stoptech is very helpful and they do look much better value.
