          It's a bit of a mixed bag here... the calipers are S8 Brembos, the carriers I'm afraid I'm not exactly sure, I think they are some kind of RS2 carrier, they fitted the leg and caliper without issues...

          Disc is a 360 x 34 from an A8Q hat height 59mm

          Bedded in now, need to upgrade the rear further as I think I'm slightly mis-balanced front to back...

          The rears are already upgraded to V8 calipers and A class Merc front discs (I forget the size, but are vented rather than solid)
          I'd like to get 314's on the rear... plans are ongoing...

              They look pretty purposeful Chris
              Did you happen to weigh one of the S8 rotors per chance?

                that'll haul up a treat...nice work.

                Details on the rear setup and bracket would be great, are you able to use the handbrake with not much rework?
