I am going to be doing a big brake upgrade soon and i just wanted to know how much i could sell my UK brakes for..

 

What i would be selling is..

 

Front and Rear UK Calipers

Used Front Discs and Pads (lots of wear left)

New boxed Goodridge Braided lines - Not used

New Caliper Refurb kits For both front and rear calipers

New OEM Supra Decal Kit.

 

Just a rough idea on how much this will go towards the new kit.

Do they really make that much of a difference?

 

J-spec brakes will slow you to a stop from high speed without much bother.......once. They get very hot quickly and if you use them in anger a few times consecutively they will start to give up and most likely you'll warp a disc.

 

The UK brakes are brilliant. They will take MUCH more abuse before even thinking about giving up.

 

On a side note though, good brake fluid is essential in either type of brake and makes a massive difference to their performance.
