You still planning to do Time Attack? If so what year??!

Calipers look nice, a good bit lighter than the Audi 8pots I imagine?

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 memory

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 5.5kg

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 wider

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

no dust seals on the racing calipers so road use would be umm....involved

Yup. And getting them to working temperature on a road would be impossible

How much??

or you could get a beater s2, or TWO

Proper brakes mate, they will make a huge difference even in just the weight saving!

Hi, sorry if you have answered this allready but did you get around to weighing the car? I'm just curious as to what it's weight now.

Jason

1100kg with

12lt of oil (only needs 6 )

20lt of fuel

Corner weights are really good now it's been set up

I have even removed another few kg's of sand from the shell after it was blasted it's every where!!

Rear sub frame and new water lines saved another 15kg

ah who needs a kidney!....

if its any consolation the GT3-RS 6 pot weighs 4kg....and thats with ceramic pistons...

James, those calipers look the dogs....

did you sort any gurneys out for that wing?

[Jaswan]

Hi again, just wondering what you have done with your original rear subframe?
