Whilst trying to plough through the euro mountain of R5 stuff that was delivered,(still)I found brackets to mount the light alloy piston/caliper assembly to the G turbo. However,the Girling (original) setup has a 48mm piston and the bendix/DBA setup has a 45mm piston. Is this a significant...

Ok, I have a 1993 1.2 clio prima and I want to upgrade the brakes. I have read the tek article on upgrading to bigger brother brakes, but I still have a question. The brakes I have on mine are (I think) Bendix. The one where you have to pull the slide out to take the pads out. In the tek...

The ren family have the nice advantage of sharing hubs and braking systems across models. Got a 1.4 19 or 1.2 clio? Then you will have 238mm solid brake discs. Some don't like this due to performance or in most cases they don't like how puny discs look behind the wheels. What to do? 4...

Hi ever since I've owned my 21 I think it has shitty brakes so I'm thinking about an upgrade, but without spending my entire trustfund ;) Would the brakes of a Subaru Impreza be any good? That car is a bit havier then a TQ and the brake technology is a little more recent.
