Is anyone using E38 4pot Brembos?
They are much cheaper than the LCR ones, but should work fine with correct adapters...

E38 Brembos?

Had a quick look and they look quite similar to the LCR caliper but they have the carrier cast into the body rather than being separate. If the existing carrier is similar dimensionally to the vechicle it's to go on then it's not possible to make an adaptor a lot of the time. Not saying it can't be done but I would have thought somebody would have picked up on this before now if it was possible.

Just to come crashing into this thread with both feet first (sorry) has anyone looked into Renault sport Clio radially mounted brembos ?

Clio197/megane225 work perfectly with creation motorsports adapters and standard lcr discs.
Pad sweep is perfect and I bought my calipers for £80 for the pair.
The adapters need 1.5mm machine off the off set and the calipers need sleeving with 1mm wall ally tube so you can use same diameter bolts that suit the CM brackets. (although the bolts that come with the brackets aren't long enough, I had to order some longer ones).
