Brembo GT Junior Kit for LCR

[Gubien]

Hi there!

My LCR did not came with brembo's as standard, only the 312mm and 2 pots.
I've seen Junior kits for the "tiny" prize at 800 EURO, so my question is:

Is there Brembo Junior, GT1 AND GT2 kits?
I'm a bit confused! Or are the Junior kit similar to the GT1?

/Best regards, Thomas

Gubien,

We can get the LCR Brembo callipers for £450 inc VAT here dunno what you need for a fitting kit though
The juniors are very similar to the LCR ones but very slightly different.
I would strongly recommend these callipers with 330mm 2 piece discs, the stopping is awesome

I think the cheapest way for me is the junior kit at £700, but maybe get the ds2500 pads instead.
Maybe supply them with the 330mm 2 piece discs later on.

Ask Bill (Badger 5) abut fitment, I remember he mentioned something about the differences but can't remember what they were

LCR caliper are a different offset to gt juniors. so would need lcr brkts to suit (specific to lcr's)
gt junior caliper has internal fluid channel so no external lower balanc epipe like lcr ones have. pistons same size, form factor same size. same pads fitted essentially. (interchangeable)

So i could just go for a junior kit, and later get the 330mm discs?

The problem for me is, if I want bigger brakes, I have to stick with someone that have TUV ("MOT" i Denmark would not let me pass without).

one piece will likely be your maximum then. gt junior will be fine.
you will need 17" minimum wheel clearance + 50mm caliper clearance as per this piccy> http://badger-5.com/bin/wheel-section-view.gif
