Back end steps out, hardly any bite....the list goes on

Richie also states they are a waste of time and he neednt have bothered.

I do have experience of a 150bhp saxo pushed to the limit using a 266mm set up and it is more than adequate. In your words in fact 'your brakes are really good'.

have you seen my rear axle?
and height of car at the rear?
bald tyre on front left, with cv grease on it
all things that alter straight line braking ronald.

the bite is the pads thats why they are £26

Still out brakes most things.

I had 266mm they were shit, lasted 3 laps of rockinham, croft they were alright near end of session they were fucked.

You have fast road track pads in your 266mm
and you dont have that ghey ebd shite.

each to their own i suppose.

was cheaper than buying fast road pads for my 266mm's in the long run.


Once i fix my wonky slonky axle, it has eventually gone completely
get my car height sorted and my new pads on, abs sorted (as on other forums they think the ghey ebd does use the abs sensors) will give you a brake test race on the airfield, who can stop the fastest front 40mph, 60mph 80mph etc lol

TBH every time i drive your car, the brake pad feel is awesome, it is shite in my car, but the speedo dramatically drops with the 4pots compared to yours, currently i have mine set so can nip them last minute before a corner.
But progressive braking is a no no atm, all or nothing

Brake off between 4 pots and 266's needed tbh.

My 4 pots were awesome at the ring and on croft, but so were my berlingo brakes at rockingham. Imho i would never buy 4 pots again, would just buy some 266's and get the mintex fast road pads in.

In summary 4 pots are gash on the road, but awesome on track. 266's good on road and on track (with the right pads etc.. obv).
