Looking at prices shipped to France. RR Racing stage 4 is 1750$ while Essex Sprint is 2670$. It's very unlikely that I go Essex :o

The Mishimoto lug nuts are out of stock. I cancelled the order and bought muteki sr48 at rallysportdirect.

You might be interested in checking that out, if you haven't already In my case i would choose the AP kit for its weight and for all the advantages of using a racing caliper, wider, more pad material, thicker discs... Rear balance is just a matter of putting the same pads. I find that the stock car has an excellent braking setup, i've done quite a few trackdays in Spain and Portugal(hot conditions) and some laps at the Nordschleife, and they hold up extremely well for a stock system every time. Adding some decent pads and fluid is more than enough, and i would only upgrade to the AP kit to reduce running costs: pads/discs last WAY longer thanks to its size, and are cheaper to replace. Just my opinion on that matter, in case it helps you decide |

RR stage 1 and 3 use the street caliper. Stage 2 and 4 use the race caliper. Stage 4 use Coleman Racing rotors, which are supposed to be very good. Thanks for the feedback on stock brakes My concern with them is more on cost than performance too
