Awright people???
I was at the mini show just been in stafford and i was reccomended to buy a set of willwod 4pots from z-cars.Was he just trying to make a sale??? The choice-willwood 4 pots from z-cars,kad 4pots or the new TAROX 6 pots.They say the 6 pots just lock up where as the willwood ones are more progressive. Any advice will be greatfully received.Thanks

willwoods are a good caliper but 6pots "just locking up" sounds like bull to me.

Chris from Z-Cars does usually know what hes talking about, however that does sound like bollocks.
I still believe the best value for money is the Minispares 4 pots.

I seriously doubt it!

I like nice quiet girly Minis

Cheltenham, Gloucestershire

For a grand I'd buy the Minispares ones, all new brake components for the front end and a brake bais valve to get the back end braking balanced to the front.

With what would be left I'd probaby spend it on the engine (assuming the suspension has already been looked at and seen too)

Every day is a school day ...........

How fast and how expensive ...... the same question...

I use Minisapres 4 pots on my cars as they are mega value for money - the reason they are good is that they are made by Titan Motorsport in Cambridge - go visit their site for credentails!

If Carling made Mini engines
it would probably be like this one!
