Reviews of Brembo brake caliper

The Panigale V4 is fitted exclusively with brand new Brembo Stylema monobloc calipers \u2013 the latest evolution of the MO one-finger endorsed M50. Machined from a single piece of alloy, these have lighter-weight areas in the mounting bushings and in the body, which make them visually more compact and give a weight reduction of 70 grams per caliper with no compromise in rigidity. Changes to internal venting improve hydraulic performance for excellent fingertip feel, shorter lever travel and \u201cprompt response.\u201d Each Stylema caliper is packing four 30mm pistons.

I have a set installed on my B6, powder coated Meteor Silver:

The Boss 302 is unapologetically brash, loud, in your face, and a prime example of what an American car should be. The Recaro seats are absolutely awesome, as is the cueball shifter, and the Alcantara covered steering wheel. The weakest point of this package is the braking. With 4-piston Brembo calipers up front and 1 piston floaters in the back, the brakes are decent and will stop the car in a hurry but honestly I wish they had way more bite.

i did audi ttrs brakes up front. 370mm rotors with brembo 4 piston calipers. about $1100 all in if I remember correctly. that includes ss lines and pads

Stock brakes are most excellent for doing a single, high speed, emergency stop. They are designed around that. If you plan on driving the car quite aggressively, or tracking it, you'll need to improve upon the stock setup. Good pads, a flush with good fluid, and stainless lines will do wonder for both fade resistance and pedal feel. You don't need big Brembos or an aftermarket caliper to track a car, and you can even aggressively track a car with improved stock brakes; you just need to adjust your driving style. In general, aftermarket calipers are largely for show, but hey...if you're going to splurge on something that isn't \"necessary\", it might as well be your brakes versus something else!

I did the Brembo 18Z(Touareg/Cayenne/Q7 calipers) on mine. It wound up being relatively cheap, less than $1000, but I used normal powerslot slotted rotors not 2 piece fancy rotors. They were relatively cheap and look awesome. Wheel clearance is a MAJOR issue, finding wheels to clear with anywhere near stock offset is very hard. They do NOT have bias issues that some people complain about when putting them on other MKV and MKVI cars, I would say my car brakes in a very balanced way.

I have an 04 W8, ill say this. Get a BBK from Brembo or someone. The front calipers are way to wide and large for what they would do for a smaller car vs the cost to make them work.

I have the Seat Ibiza Cupra R 4 pot Brembos for a 4 lug 12" rotors I'm running Brock B2's 16x7.5" with a 15mm FK spacer.

No fade at all (overheating is no longer an issue). For the first time the brake pedal feels like the gas pedal. You just touch it and it slows down a bit, you gently step on it and it slows you down, you press harder and it slows you even faster, etc. Finally, believe it or not, ABS kicks in rarely!! (not the case with OEM brakes). My opinion is that this is a very wise setup, not \"ricey\", very effective and a top value for money .
