I dont know what to buy :confused:

Apex AP brake kit or KAD brake kit. Same price, same setup just different caliper. I hate making decisions when this much money is involved :(

AP if the price is the same :nod:

KAD are great but if you can get AP's for the same money...

AP Racing are a massive international company who have been around in the competition market for ever and have MASSIVE experience in the design, development and manufacture of brake kits and components.

And I believe most F1 cars use AP Brakes

I agree with bren :)

I did some research on the GTR oc, and skyline oc on KAD, AP and Wilwood. The general concensus was 90% of the higher powered cars ran AP kit's.

If it's good enough for a 700 bhp R34, they're good enough for me :)

We have just had the compoennts for the 343mm kit arrive (343mm rotors, 6 pot calipers, DS2500 pads) and theyve been sent off to our engineers so the 343 kit is imminent :)

Have you not got that Apex credit card sorted out yet Bren :rolleyes:
You'd probably make half a £million in a couple of weeks :D I'd need one with atleast a 10k limit :annoyed:

Cheers Jay, i was hoping someone would come up with a reassuring response like that :nod: I saw the AP's on your car at japshow :cool:

Bren, can we have the mounting bells anodised in different colours :confused: , just to be a pain really
bren

Yeah you can get them different colours but it will add to the price and extend the lead time :)

Is their a price on the willwood setup, iirc you had them at about 1K?

are both of these kits available now or is their a lead time, if so what?

And what are the main differences between them, sorry if this has been covered before

I'll be ordering one or the other just want to see if the ap is worth the extra £500

We arent doing the Wilwoods now. We would have to retail them at £1195 to make them worth doing and I cant see anyone paying that when you can get the propa 'bo APs for 300 quid more.

I believe we have five sets of AP bells and brackets with the suppliers so we could sort a kit within days :)
