this looks a great little upgrade, nice work! the projects section really was a good idea but since your using a std disc diameter and std sized pad is the absolute braking power going to increase much as i always thought pad contact area was the deciding factor  but they look good, fit behind 15' wheels and as you said they feel more progressive so all in they are def a worthwhile mod (my 2 cents )________________________________________ *R.I.P Pete Sims* |

22% more pressure on the pads though.I guess it's one of those things that you have to experience more so than anything ________________________________________ Life is a lie. The only certainty of which is death. Go live and enjoy yourself. The clock is tickingVrs power!! |

I have just read this absolutely excellent thread thread. (having failed to find someone to make some wilwoods fit and having gone the GTi 180 route- with good results but for more money.) How have things shaken down and are you now in production?________________________________________ New Forum same high quality intellectual debate!Team Zimmer™ |

Hi Welly, do you know if Willwood do a rear caliper that would go on a 306 and be a bit more effective than the standard setup.
