who else is having issues with the VWR brakes out on track then?

Luke...car looks superb mate but sorry to hear the brakes weren't holding as well.

I did 8 laps over 2 days with my standard 345mm set up. Lasted no probs but then again i wasn't pushing it as much!  :smiley:

PaulK was less than impressed with his, (i'm quite sure they were the version 2 of VWR brakes he had fitted), lots of judder when pressing on, also Illtronik i believe have had problems with them, but i might stand corrected  :confused:

I had the Project Mu set up and they were stunning!! But pricey.. Hence the change to the Caparo designed kit..

Couldnt fault my S3 'DaveB specials' one bit either! Did everything i asked of them and so much better than the 312s, well impressed!   :happy2:
My setup is S3 calipers, braided hoses, plain oe discs, motul rbf600 and Mintex M1144 pads, i shopped wisely and with Daves help it all came in well under £500, Bloody bargain for the performance increase!!

Luke,

Back on thread. How is the car running on the K04 hybrid? Have you managed to get it back on the rollers?

Would like to know how it is going :happy2:

Were they replaced under warranty? The ring isn't hard on brakes
