Do you guys know waht the difference is between the older cp5300 caliper and the one you employ in the sprint kit?
Thanks!

Hi Jing. Welcome.
Unless you are insanely talented driving an uber powerful BRZ/86 then 330mm discs are more show than function. The pissant little discs in the Essex Sprint Kit are more than enough for 99.97% of people. Contact CompFriction in Canberra; they have the Sprint Kit for sale. (I don't know if they have them on the shelf or get them in per order).

As an added bonus the Sprint Kit loses 4.5 kgs per wheel of unsprung mass.
Don't forget that to be legal you have to get the aftermarket brakes Engineered so if you go for the Sprint Kit don't get the optional braided brake hoses from the U.S. You can get ADR compliant braided line made to order in Aus.
