Removed Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 why do you specify JDM import? if it has brembos, it has brembos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leenx Posted August 25, 2006 Author Share Posted August 25, 2006 I want the gold coloured Brembo stuff that the UK ones get, I'm confused now, what Brembo kit would I need so that it matches the UK spec? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 have you got the CALIPERS or not? you confused me now.... IE have you already got the gold bits you are mentioning above?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leenx Posted August 25, 2006 Author Share Posted August 25, 2006 Nope - Ideally if possible that would do me as I'm not a speed freak and not really into the performance side of things it's more for cosmetic reasons I guess, but presume I need the pads / discs etc as well?? or not?....

lomoto Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I think you mean you want Brembo calipers and discs for your import that doesnt have them?? if so look to spend about £1500-£2000 a lot of money for cosmetics, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 a lot of money for cosmetics, hold on mate, oem brakes are not 4 pots are they? brembos are 4 pots, preformance has got to be better than your cheapo ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Available from car valet suppliers, you can dilute it down to required strength.. Evil stuff though if it gets on your skin/ eyes/ paintwork..but cleans up calipers /painted wheels / stainless steel a treat on calipers you need to paint with the afore mentioned lacquer or it will fust over in time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
