[s-cars] UFO brakes

[Bjørn Ødegård]

Kalin,
I have the same problem, and so far the only solutions are these:
1. Movit' brake kit with 4-piston Brembo calipers, custom hats/disks and
brackets, about ?2000.
2. BIRA system 2 (Greg, any comments?) with machined Mercedes 600/V12 disks
and custom brackets and Porsche/Brembo 996 carrera one-piece
calipers.Requiers BIRA membership and a at least 5-10 sets of brackets
preordered. Total cost about ?1500
3. exchange the struts and hubs to non-UFO S4/S6 ones, and buy the RS2
brackets, 996tt calipers and cheap S8 disks. Will get you going for around
?1200, not including the hubs/struts. (hard to get, and a lot of work!)

I also have to make a choice soon, as my UFOs are really worn..
Keep me posted, if you find a better solution!

Hi,

I have problem. I'm damaging too fast my UFO disks - after a few good breaks
and the disk is twisted. So I decided to change it with normal 314x30 disk.
So far so good, but I do not know what will fit as a break. Doest anyone
know if the big red breaks will fit ? I read somewhere that there is problem
changing the UFO system to a normal breaks, but there was no details on
that. And now I have the problem - I do not know what breaks to put. Also
what else could fit if the red breaks do not fit?

Best Regards
