Good stuff :),

The added weight would be counter productive.

But at the momment im thinking of costs more than anything else.

If only I was more mechanically gifted,

Would save me a lot. Lol

Them small 4/6 pots seem ideal what a bargain price too

They undercut D2 Racing but if you look at Ksport and choose floating disks, the prices are comparable. - That's not a dig BTW, just observation....

 

So £650 for a BBK with 4/6 pots or under £900 for the same with floating disks.

 

Disk size has some implications for minimum wheel size but unless you tend towards Compomotive etc... The usual problem with BBK is clearance for the extra couple of pots on the caliper hitting the wheel spokes.

Bargain. Only downside is they dont do floating discs under 330mm

    Just done a quote. £120 for me. So a full set of 4/6pot front brakes delivered is <£800. So with some decent fluid your looking at around £800. Sounds like a bargain to me for brand new brakes. I'm gonna do a bit more digging on these and the Wilwoods as well. Hopefuly get a deal.
