Had a set of these on my S2 when I bought it.Originally posted by imsatim
They were bought and fitted by dialynx at great expense.
Only problems caused by the manufacture of the calipers would have been the lack of dust seals necessitating regular maintenance.
Outlaw were very good to me with their e-mail contact - though don't necessarily believe their online CAD specs as they were a fair bit out when I checked my setup!
The problems (numerous) I experienced, were all to do with the importers and 'Bremsport' kit builders TAS. TAS are now under new management though so might be more accommodating.

I've been told not to touch callipers that don't have dust seals. Unless they're for race use and you don't mind cleaning them between races.SSComment

I have these on mine and so far i have had no problems, cleaning the pistons when changing the pads is a bit of a chew, but a bit or wire wool does the jobbie spot on, and i have not managed to over heat them yet as my bremsports are not monoblocks, they have cross over pipes and spacer pieces in themEverything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.--:Albert EinsteinComment

we,ve just returned from a track day testing these on 2 s2,s and a 2wd cope v6,no problems whatsoever,we used hawk hp+ street+track pads no fade even after 20 or 30 laps continous.they do give off dust so for the street we are testing the hawk hps not yet available in this country.we also got to run our 80 quattro supertouring car aswell,i,ll keep you posted on the pads as we test.the hawk pads are not as hard on the discs as ds2500 and stop aswell...timComment

Had a quick go of tims with the original brake kit fitted at the weekend and was really impressed, very surprised at how relatively quick the pads heat up as i was expecting the usual fast road pads epic, of oooooohhhhh **** no brakes! till they get warm, no so in this case. Fingers crossed ill be getting this kit fitted this month so ill report back on how i get on with them.
Cant wait, just sorting the top mounts and drop links at the weekend, and having a quick go in Bibby and Tims s2's has given me a glimpse of what i want from mine.
WooHoo!
Nice one
