Aps Phase 3 And Stopping Performance

[Guest big kev]

Hi,

Just a quick question - im looking to also gettin a phase 3 pack installed and just wonderin whether u guys with the same kits upgraded their brakes further.

I havent got my car yet and a ba 6 turbo I took for a test drive had the crap stock stoppers.

Are you just running fords perfomance brake package ? brembos or better ?

Cheers

I have alcon 4 spot calipers with 330mm disks, stops fine now. But I agree, standard brakes are absolute turd. First mod I did was the brakes.

Although expensive, the brembos are excellent. I have a Cebco Brembo brake upgrade fitted. The kit comes with the front and rear calipers, brackets, two piece front slotted rotors with alloy hub and single piece slotted vented rear rotors. Also supplied are stainless steel braided lines (4), Dot5.1 fluid and new copper washers and banjo bolts. The rotors are DBA. Cebco has replacement pads for about $300 a set (front). The sizes are 355x32F, and 330x28R.

The alloy hub two piece front rotor weights about the same as the OEM standard rotor. I like twisty roads and hard corners, and the Brembos really come thru under these conditions. No fade at all. The standard brakes were shuddering like hell after three heavy braking moves (down right dangerous !!).

They fill the 18inch wheels nicely.
