Wilwood Brake Upgrade.

[Jamie8GTi]

Hello guys,
Just wondering if any of you have dealt with wilwood brakes and where you went to get them?
Want to upgrade both front and rear and struggling to find anywhere in the uk that manufacture rear kits, its just with the hefty import tax from across the pond this post might save me a pretty penny.

The car is a 316i originally, but I have the rear subframe from a 325 with arms, and 51mm front struts but the callipers that came with them are all seized.

I'm only putting a 2.5 m50 in her at the moment but with plans for future power already brewing If i'm going to spend money getting the brakes ready this time, I might aswell make an investment and go all in

Cheers

750 master cylinder or similar required

all 4 pots give a long pedal IMHO , bigger bore m.cyl should be factored in guys

just my 2P

I just received my mazda rx7 conversion parts - £250 delivered from the US for rebuilt 4 pot calipers, brackets, pads & the brake pipe conversion nipple. - factor in £50 for some corrado g60 discs and you got a front setup for £300.

Upgraded master cylinder - $100 delivered from amazon.com (part number 34 31 1 156 643 ), £70 - £80 for a set of goodridge hoses and £60 for a set of pagid rear discs and pads for now, and its still less then the price of one of the wilwood sets.

With the Wilwoods yes, but I'm sure Keri said the WMS kits have been designed with piston sizes to match the standard master cylinder.

WMS offer a couple of kits, one with just slightly larger than standard piston sizes and one with staggered pistons in a much larger size which needs a different MC

I think I will go with the WMS kit I'm just having trouble contacting KERI-WMS as the messages stay in my outbox..

Put a post up in the FAO section at the bottom of the forum
