2013 Brembodge Group Buy

Post by ttrw2 »

***GROUP BUY CLOSED as of Friday 30th Aug***
All balances received, bits will be ordered on Monday and I'll report back with expected delivery dates. Cheers -



Since the last group buy three years ago the odd kit has been supplied, but recently it's become hard to stock bits for single kits as suppliers don't really want to deal in single numbers.

In the past six months or so I've had to turn away over than ten people which is a shame.

So I'm looking to run a smaller Group Buy for Brembodge kits (5+ kits). These are for grooved kits only and £283 per kit delivered (£80 saving over over single kit cost).

If you're interested, please PM me first - I'll require a small deposit (£50) as this filters out the non-serious people.

We'll leave this open until end of August (6 weeks) at which point if we have enough interest I will require the remaining balance (£233) and I'll place the order for all the bits.

If the GB doesn't go ahead you get the deposit back immediately.

For more info on the kits and the previous GBs look here

The only changes to the kit since those days is a mod to the bracket design that now allows one bracket irrespective of ZR, ZS, R8 fitment.

If you need any testament of the kit, then just have a search on these forums.

Does the kit include the calipers or just everything else required to fit them?

I take it there would be no problem fitting with 20mm spacers on the front?
With regards to replacement discs in the future are they easy to source?
And are they costly?
Just trying to weigh up options on either these, suspension stuff or LSD and lightweight fly.

Thanks Greg -

Yep, discs are not a prob later on. You'll be doing well to wear out a set of discs though, unless serious track mileage and hard pads.
Spacer size is up to you.
Calipers not included. I have noticed lately the price has come right down now, £150-175 seems realistic.

There is a wealth of info across the GB threads and original dev thread so please do make a brew and have a read, likewise if you need any testaments of how well this works them just look-up someone who uses them on here (more than 50 kits sold to date) and ask them!

Cheers
Rob

Look at this on eBay:

http://bit.ly/1c3Iilc


These are refurbed brembo's and in turn as good as new.

They're not refurbed Brembos, they're Budweg pattern parts.

They offer exchange in brembo's so I imagine they are refurbing brembo's.

Budweg are 100 percent genuine brembos that have been refurbed. I checked with them. They are not pattern.

Perfect timing, I should be in a position to take part in the group buy this time.

So those Budweg calipers are Brembos without the Brembo stickers? That's a damn good price, and pretty much makes all the used ones on ebay look like a waste of time and money. I'd gladly pay the extra £50 and avoid getting seals etc and refurbing calipers.

I can vouch for the stopping power of these kits. Had mine for several years now and its one of, if not the, best mods I've done to my coupe.

My only word of caution to potential buyers would be that you might also want to budget for a set of custom brake lines with the correct Pug fitment on the caliper end due to the poor quality casting on some calipers causing brake fluid leaks at the banjo connections.

Leaky Rover fitment on mine, you can see where I attempted to cure the leak, to no avail, by filing the casting at the banjo mating face.

I got mine through the HEL group buy on here a year or so ago, but I'm sure you could get them if you went direct.

I had exactly this, and have pretty much written off that caliper. Does the pug fitment not use that face at all then ? Does it seal with a taper ?

Epic, I may have just saved a caliper !
