have the new Hispec brakes for a week now, I must say they are excellent. Especially the feel is much better and it gives you much more confidence overall. Haven't tried full braking power yet as they are new, but even now the stopping power is hugh!

will post some picies soon

Very nice, how much were they, did you fit them yourself?

Peninsula is too far out for me. Castle Sport can't help me on Wednesday (the day I'll be in the UK) and Tower View only have 283mm at this moment.

Had a nice chat with someone at Hispec. They will probably have time to help me.

Any other alternatives in the London area?



Peninsula will pick-up and drop off your car just fro the price of petrol. I used them for my brake up-grade and was extremely pleased.

Would thoroughly recommend Peninsula who did mine.
