Needing a big brake kit for my leon, something that works well but doesn't need to be pretty its purely ergonomic
I had the brembos with Bill's 330 floating and these were awesome on road and on track, couldn't fault this kit but to go back to it would cost a lot and I think the money would be best invested in a different kit
Although I see people making/buying kits using the brembo 18z calipers but these are also predominately for road use
In the next few years the car is going to be much more track orientated and do many less miles on the road so im thinking of going for some proper stoppers
Im looking into AP racing kits, im looking to keep them behind the standard wheels preferably and without spacers.
Have been looking at the Alcons that the supercopa runs but these are very hard to find and also wont be that easy to fit as the supercopa runs a totally different hub and strut setup.
Any one got any good ideas or input?

I have K-Sport kit on mine and its very good combined with DS2500.
The price is good too and very light weight.

K-Sport

No offence but its k-sports and the like that are more aesthetics than ergonomics that im trying to avoid
Ive probably been spoilt with having a very good brake setup before but want better still
Realistically its going to be between alcon and AP I think

I've been looking at those Godspeed 2 piece disc's myself. But believe Prawn had a set on and they warped on a track day at Spa.

When you think ive got to buy a brembo setup first, then upgrade it to 2 piece isn't going to be cheap and even then the calipers would ideally need rebuilding.
Depends what price I can get things at really, as with everything
