Hi all, as ive sold my car I have for sale my 330mm Brembo set up comprising of;2 x 406 Coupe Brembo Calipers
2 x Ash's Mounting brackets
2 x Ash's Alloy bells
2 x Hi Spec motorsport 330mm discs
2 x Braided hoses
4 x Mintex OEM pads
All bolts pictured
It is the full kit, as pictured and has everything required to bolt up to your car (bar your current caliper mounting bolts) It will fit any 306. The only issue is one of the discs is warped, Im told this could probably be skimmed flat or a new disc is about £120.
The disc warped as there is a little bit of corrosion in the calipers under the ally plates, this lifted the plates and jammed the pads on causing stupid heat. I filled the sides of the pads down a tiny bit and they work fine now but if your a perfectionist the plates are held on with torx bits so you could remove them, re flatten them and remove the corrosion. Alot of 406 calipers suffer from this, Im trying to be fully honest about what im selling.
It has only been on my car for 2 months and done about 2500 miles so theres loads of life left in the pads and no noticeable amount of disc wear.
They do currently look like they were painted by a handicapped 5 year old (red hammerite spray is shite) but I hadv a full set of new decals in white for the calipers made from 5 year hi temp vinyl.
For those of you who worry about un sprung weight this could be a great way to up your stopping power as the the brembo calipers with brackets and pads are noticably lighter than my standard HDi calipers and the discs with the alloy bells are probably lighter than standard GTi6 discs.
Im looking for £450 ONO for the full set up and may consider a 306 GTi6 283mm set up or 307 302mm set up in part exchange.
First Pics are from fitting. Last pics are as they sit now.
