ap's to be fitted

[T100L]

anybody recommend any decent garage/peeps in aberdeen to fit them? :)

[Gismo]

Do you mean the brake kit? if so, i had to fit spacers to clear the wheels, my wheels were aftermarket and had more clearance than standard wheels

[T100L]

yup, do i need spacers we the strandard gp 18's ??

You'll need to find out the wheel offset and then contact AP direct for confirmation, unless they already say they will fit

[T100L]

mm..said they would

I fitted the AP's to my old S, they were a very good improvement, but, not sure on the GP, never used the GP's brakes in anger to compare and John hardly ever uses brakes anyway :p
Does the GP have JCW brakes as standard, if so, i wouldn't change

Yep, the elusive man himself ;)
The AP's are good, but, if you drive like the majority of us, spirited but nae dafty stuff ;):p then the AP's, in my mind, would be wasted over the JCW brakes :approve:
But, if you've already promised them to your nephew then you needn't make any more posts :p go for it :approve:

The GP brakes I found just slow you down thats why I dont use them:D



Seriously though I thought they were very good but look sh!t JCW kit looks like they nicked it off of a BMW runabout, painted them red, slapped on a sticker and that was that.


T100L, do I know you??
