GTI6 brakes weigh a lot more, but cost a lot more both in discs and pads.I would get some uprated pads in the S16 calipers first, and if that's not enough then some 4-pots on the 266mm discs from a 307. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

I'm fitting '6 brakes to mine, they weigh loads more than the s16 ones and cost alot more. But I've heard the feel is much better, and my original ones are on the way out, so I'm giving them a try. ________________________________________ owain wrote: Twisties are for those with balls, top speed is for those with tiny little penises.

I wonder why an p1 XSI setup stops an XSI 3.4 meters sooner than p1 S16s stop the S16?Surely not the ~20kgs? S16 pads are also bigger, right? ________________________________________ XSi 8V -> S16 |
