damaged salvage tvr wanted 2003 on for spare/ sag parts/t350
Discussion
Unfortunately I saw a written off (probably) Midas Pearl T350 today... the owner had just a load of work done including vented bonnet,rear wing and the engine was looking the dogs dangley bits...I wept...I don't know how he must have felt 
Suspect it's a bit early to say what's going to happen to the car.

HiSpek uprated Monster brake system with 6 Pot/Piston front calipers with 360mm front discs with matching 302mm rears with Mintex F4 pads alround. Brand new. Unused as recent Supercharged project was aborted & car was sold.

Shaun, that brake kit sounds tasty, what sort of money are you looking for

Peter - all you need to do is fit Ferodo DS2500 pads all round. Do a search on here for others' recommendations. Then the brakes will be perfectly adequate. Just don't fit Mintex 1144 like a certain Blackpool service place did to mine eh? Shaun, that brake kit sounds tasty, what sort of money are you looking for
(yes, I contacted them and asked them what pads they had fitted as they feel like chocolate).Its OK Trefor, its about far more than stopping power. My Audi brakes on the company tank can remove my eye balls and they are nothing special, like the look as much anything else and my T350 has the smaller standard discs anyway which are known for lack of feel.
Sugestion was to upgrde to Sag disks as fitted to yours but for not much more can have dustbin lids and a very different look. As stated before, if I use one tenth of the standrd brakes / engine performance I will be a happy man.

If that is what you're trying to 'solve' then one thing to note is that TVRs are not overservoed like an Audi (or from a different perspective TVRs are underservoed). The biggest brakes on the planet will still have the same servo assisting you. Which is why I mentioned the pads.Sugestion was to upgrde to Sag disks as fitted to yours but for not much more can have dustbin lids and a very different look.

Sagaris front discs and adapters for the calipers (they are the same calipers as std) are only a few hundred quid from TVR Power. Then the pads are the same size/code as standard too. You'll probably need to pay an eng shop to get the adapters to fit unless you're really lucky and they line up without cutting and welding. Of course the Sagaris has bigger rears too, but they are more expensive to uprate. So maybe a secondhand mega upgrade will be less expensive than initially thought...
