Right ever since mark posted about the wilwood 4 pot kits he was gonna be providing ive been thinkin about.............mega stopping power.
the 4 pot wilwood kit will cost £350.00 iirc
but i found a 6 pot tarox kit for £728.30 that includes discs also.
me and jesus had a bit of a chat bout this last night and he reackons its a bit overkill havin 6 pots and im inclined to agree with him, but if anyone else has any opinions bout this please tell me as all advice will be gleefully accepted.

I think its overboard too... it would be a nice addition, however unless you are planning aload of trackdays or running at lemans this year i think the 4 pots on offer are awesome and well worth an investment.....
upgrade th breaks... upgradethe tyres

Double the price, not worth it IMOH, Marks deal looks on paper shit hot, We all agree that the brakes on the Willy are one of it's weak spots. Semi slicks are great, but you need to have consistantly good weather
I am really considering subject to reports of coming over and having these brakes fitted, it sounds like one of the best investments I have heard of.

i have to agree 6pots are a bit overkill for normal use, if u are doing alot of trackdays fair enough, but the wilwood 4pots should be more then capale to do the job, only time i experienced these was in whats now martins banana! and they felt so much better then my williams std brakes!

Being different costs!
I can think of better way to spend the extra 300 odd quid for 6 pots.
