Re: Exige V6 Upgrades
What's the current thinking on brakes? I put the Elise Shop bells & rotors on the front of mine with standard pads which seems to work well but they don't do them for the back. To get something that'll work front and back you end up at the likes of Alcons but the price is a bit eye watering.

There were a couple of lightly used sets of rear two piece discs on eBay last week, might be worth a look

Nope. They've been really good although I've not tried them on track yet. Just wondering about options for the rear, or if there's a better all round option.C7Steve wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2020 9:38 pmDo you need new rotors already Neil?neil wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2020 7:11 pmWhat's the current thinking on brakes?

I’ve been looking at the Alcon 343mm brake upgrade....for several years. My car has sat at Craig’s for about a year with knackered brakes as I try to justify the cost and pull the trigger!

Go big or go home! Same price as the 332's so easier for the man maths to justify

I’ve had PFC pads from Seriously Lotus on for a while. Really like them.

Dave (Seriously Lotus) told me that the PFC brake pads create a lot of dust and the dusts sets like concrete once wet. No experience of them though. I have been using the Ferodo 2500 pads.
