A bell is the blue bit in the centre:

If you do some homework you should be able to get them cheaper all in than what Apex sell them for

This is all too confusing for my little brain!

I just want to hand over a credit card number and have everything I need sent to me to bolt on lol

:confused:

Its all kind of simple but if you want to blitz your credit card then I highly recommend going the S13 coilover route

convert to s13 front hubs and struts and get some of Dan_s14a's 315mm M3 discs and caliper brackets (using s14 calipers) MUCH MUCH cheaper than the 310mm bells and rotors route

This sounds a good plan.

Martin, what EXACTLY do I need to get to do this?

30psi 22-01-2007 17:57

Gotta shoot out but search for my posts about doing the conversion :)

Martin you seem to take any oportunity to pick at whatever i say, i should not have to cover every angle of a statment i make just to stop you from picking at it like a magpie in a cornfield. :ghey
I never had that much bite on my standard discs and pads compared to how they are now It is a seriously vast improvment on the standard setup and i was reccommending it as it is a decent,easier and cheaper option.I never suffer brake fade from 'fast road' type driving.I only got bad brake fade at Rockinham after doing 120 down to 20 over and over again after about 15 minutes because of some daft chicanes they put up on the oval track.

I didnt find s14 front calipers on std s12 discs to any better whatsover than the setup i use Richard, If you are going to go for 4 pots you definatly need different discs

RichardK 22-01-2007 20:13

Yep going for the S13 setup by looks of it. Got some S14a calipers. Just got to work out what else I need...
