Those 12pistons kits would be worth a mint!

This ebay trader sells the kits for $1400 + $200 postage to Australie

Cheap for the whole kit!

FYI, I believe the dealer selling for $1400 on Ebay is running out their stock, thus the price.

$1400 is WAY under the cost of these kits.

anyone had any experience with these? the kit is only $2300 how do they rate? street ? track? drag? pull you up nice or what?

just to give you an idea

Brembo F50 kit with 340 disc

Price is $3200 plus shipping so likely to be $3600 all up. (kit is brand new)

i guess at the end of the day you have to ask is the brembo kit worth the extra 1.3k?

that is a biot kit and their shit is awesome quality (rotors hats, brackets, obviously F50 calipers are F50 caliper regardless of who sells them).

biot is shit hot but v expensive... the rear offset kit installed is more than the whole front end k-sport kit!!

[Beer Baron]

but you get the open box sticker too. which is a definate plus.

Well any company that names their product for an obscure dimensionless number has my vote. Stickers would just be a bonus.

More importantly, how can I get my hands on this stuff? Appears to be cheaper/friendlier than the straight up Brembo kits...

[Ronin 09]

mmm biot dimensionlessness....

ahhahahahahahahah just like all the other garbage that comes out of china and tiawan that have "is9001/9002" aproved etc etc. doesnt mean shit. it it is is a simlpe "manufacturing" guideline. just like workcover.

[T04GTR]

I was told by a d2 distributer, that the d2 brakes are the same as AP racing brakes, as they use all the same components on the inside don't know weather this is true or not. but if it is i wouldnt be surprises if brakes like g4 and ksports are the same (using ap componenets)

yeah no i dont think so. he was pulling your leeg. just like how i got my leg pulled when i bought some k-sport coilovers cos he said the shock was made in japan. pftt. pieces of shit. i went through 3 rear shocks in 6 months

[T04GTR]

the biot stuff looks the go!!!

brembo aus wants. 500 for each caliper bracket. 575 for each rotor 500 for each brake hat. then theres the calipers lol.

[craked]

i work for a and b motorsports and all brakes are tested and approved over seas and here before going on the market. there is a write up in this months street commodores compairing all the brakes on the market if you want more info on compairing them

I work for the UK distributer for KSport. We have ben running them on various test vehicles including out 500rwhp R33 GTST EDC (European Drift Championship) and Time Attack competition car. We run 356mm 8 pot front and 356mm 6 pot rear kits with Ferodo DS3000 front and KSport race rear pads without a hint of fade. Just solid, progressive, awesome stopping power.

We have done 40+ track days to test and help develop the kits, a couple of initial niggles have been highlighted and eradicated to leave us with fantastic value for money and highly effective brake kits.

i bought ronins biot gear for him in japan. not sure if anyone sells it here but if you're stuck I'll get it for you. they do custom colours too and the finish is awesome.

Thanks for the offer, Baron. I have some thinking to do...

The first question question is F40's on a 332 rotor, or the F50 on a 355 rotor?

Then which handbag should I get the hats to match?

[Beer Baron]

i would see if they can do them a loui vouitton pattern, or perhaps style them like an hermes grace kelly bag...

[_Wing_]

whats the chances of those biot F50's with 340φ 355φ 370φ rotors fitting under a 17" rim (diameter wise)?

[Beer Baron]

340s can fit. just depends on the wheel. in fact 355s would fit with some 17s too.

[Duncan]

yeah Steve from JJ is running 355s under 17" wheels, just depends on the design....not much space for rocks to fall back out though....
