Spoke to Pete who made those fantastic dashes this morning to find a guy called Hans that sold him his uprated brakes probably from the internet. I have the 18 inch spiders with 5 stud and standard slightly warped discs etc ( Pedal goes up and down a bit.!!) Anyone know of him ?

If you are running 18 inch spiders, you have so many brake upgrade options, including 324mm Brembos and 330mm Cerbera AP brakes, why go for the barely bigger Ford option?

Hansdaal is a top bloke - genuinely one of the most decent guys I've met in the TVR world.

A set or Brembo callipers off an E38 BMW with 324mm Ford Focus RS discs will fit under any wheels from 16" up. This will give you absolutely awesome brakes and you should be able to put the whole setup together for £500 (ish) all in.

The Brembo upgrade will easily be as good (if not better) than the £1000 plus big brake kits!

Why pay more?
