I guess you can't put a price on lightness, over 3kg a side is a great saving.

rough price for the 6 pots and how easily are they available
what size discs and will they fit under your wheels without too many issues compared to the 8 pots they look widerLeave a comment:

I really need some seat time in it. Keep finding little niggles that i am not happy with. Unfortunately i dont have the budget or time to do back to back testing with paid help and support so its slowly slowly catch the monkey. Yes i will but only when the time is right.
Calipers are pretty light. They only weight 2023 gram a piece with titanium pistons, i think the 8 pots are about 5.5kgLeave a comment:

those Brembos the six pots with the intricate holes on the pistons to save weight made from titanium? They look like it and very very tasty, used on touring and lighter GT cars from memoryLeave a comment:

You still planning to do Time Attack? If so what year??!
Calipers look nice, a good bit lighter than the Audi 8pots I imagine?Leave a comment:

They contained the word S.e.x in the hyper link so the forum shat its shelf.
Had a track day at combe which was a full day but i only managed to turn up 1.30 minutes to the end. The guys let me straight on, scruiting noised tested the car and no one can seem to get it stay at 4k for a test so i got away with 104 at something like 7k
Had a over heating problem over 100 mph. So i have changed over to a larger capacity water pump, larger water lines and made some air scoops for the side windows as it seems the air is passing over the ducts at higher speeds.
I ended up saving 10kg in removing the braided lines i was using.
Moulds

Plugs

Carbon fibre end product

New calipers, serious ****

And some AP toys for my air jacks

If you fancy a trackday at Anglesey chef (small drive), got a place we can stay thats 15mins from Circuit next to RAF Valley. PS. Designed the brackets for ARB setup just need your desired bearing sizes to amend model. Overcome the Blade fitment issue too... Well once FEA says I'm not losing the plot.Leave a comment:

This looks phonominal! I hope one day you might fancy testing it out at anglesey circuit, would love to see it go round the multiple corners and corkscrew there!Leave a comment:

Belting stuffI think thats the plan chief. I'll get some bearings to suit the bar and you can come up with some fancy bracket that will cost me a arm and a leg.
On a plus note, I can finally use the car again as my parts have arived back from Zircotech only 22 days late mind you and costing me a evening track day at £150 and lucky enough i sold my space at Snett.
Got to be honest if i knew it was going to take so long i would have not bothered but i thought i had the time as i had alittle fabrication work to do. And my Dash was away being repaired.
Next time you need some development work use the term "budget" in your subject heading and I'll remove Motorsport Tax
Seriously though I have some housings predesigned for specific bearings so can R&D some of those and keep costs down. Message me your ARB bar diameter(s) and what end style you need. I have some weld in end bosses designed for the WRC and GT square end type already.
