400 Brakes again

[jvaughan]

Sorry to start what is an old topic, but having just spent the last few hours going through the archive, the answers to my questions were not forthcomming.

.. The Symptom .. Need more stopping power

.. The solution Big Brakes ... But what Brakes ?

I want to run the existing 15" Wheels, so nothing stupid like 400mm disks, but I was wondering if the sprinters etc have any preferences ?

Just change the bells / rotors or go for 4/6pot calipers or the full works ?

If anyone has any prices they could throw into the equasion that would be great.

Thanks guys, anyone have any quoted prices I can use as a benchmark ?

Not sure about cosworth items ... I have heard rumours they are no better than the current AP 4 pots I have fitted .... Will investigate though. cheers

the wedge brakes are good. with greenstuff pads fitted, They are good .. but not great. having done over 40,000 miles in mine since I bought the car, the brakes have always been sufficient, not the car needs a little extra
