S3 Modified......Now with Brembos

[jimmy S3]

Just got some porsche brembos fitted on my S3, look cool and stop on a penny, some pics

 

[finesse]

Those wheels

Nice brakes!

 

[raoul duke]

All you need now is some decent wheels to show off the Brembos

 

[voorhees]

good choice of brakes

 

[A3Tom]

Those brakes are nice

Wheels arent my cup of tea but its nice to see something different so fair play....shame they hide the brakes though!.

I actually think your car looks pretty smart in this pic below(apart from the wonky indicator )

haha i know, looks spot on in the sunshine and in person, bit more drop though, 20mm spacers on front look much better, tryin to find a company to do all the exterior plastic (grey stuff) in genuine carbon fibre, proving tricky

How much were these out of interest? There are quite a few sets on Piston Heads. What else did you have to buy?

Looking good matey, are those 996 carrera rear calipers? They look like them.

What size discs are you using? looking at the brackets I'd say 312's still?

I'm just waiting for my 996 rear calipers to arrive with 325mm discs

How do these stop you? what's the pedal feel like?

996/boxster-s rears

 

[Prawn]

How are they Jimmy?

Be honest too! These calipers are getting a slating on here at the moment, which I'm not too happy about as I've got a set on their way to me!

How's the pedal feel?

What's the stopping power like?
