Alcon 4 Spot Brakes

[Mark-32]

Hi all,

Just after some info on the 4 spot Alcon front brake setup and if this sounds like a good deal compared to geting gtr calipers/ rotors.

I have been offered these brakes in good condition for $2200, never heard of alcon before untill now but they are surposed to be a major front brake upgrade for gtr's.

I own a 32 gtst, but its fitted with a 26dett and im about to go down the brake upgrade road. I just want to know if this is a better way to go rather than fitting normal gtr brakes and so on.

They come with really thick discs, unsure of exact measurements as yet but I do know they will fit behind a 16inch enkei wheel. The owner also said there is one small mod required to do to the hub to make the brakes fit. They were originaly purchased for targa tasmania but he has since sold the car but still has the brakes.

This is the only info i have from the owner of brakes but just thought I would see what people think of the setup and price and if its a worthwhile road to take.

Any info is much appreciated.

never heard of alcon?

well for one they are the standard brake of v8 supercars..

know what model they are? any info on disc size?

If they fit behind 16 Enkei wheels they are most likely the 332 x 32 mm rotors. The mod to the hub is likely the little 6mm tapped hole that sits there for god knows what reason that sometimes clashes with the radial mount.

They are a good thing provided the rotors are in good shape the seals not worn.
