Hello everyone, Im new to this forum, and this is my first post!

 

I have a Fabia VRS from 2004, new owner. I've also had 2 Clio's that are the nearest I can come this, in the past. 197 RS.

 

I am considering into turning my VRS into a trackday car, and upgrading it with parts for the track, and would like to ask for some advice here.

 

I was wondering if anyone here is using this car for trackdays on this forum as well. How well are the brake calipers holding up, when upgrading the brake pads? Do you recommend upgrading them, if so, to what? 

Its only a 1 piston brake caliper stock, and I am considering upgrading to CL Brakes RC6 brakes from kamracing.co.uk. 

I've earlied had Winmax W5.5 on my Clio RS with a 2 piston caliper, and the pads are insane! This should be a tad better, but Im afraid that the 1 piston caliper wont extrude 100% of the braking capacity of the pads.

Does anyone here have any experience here, or tips? 

I've found the Wilwood Dynalite 4 pot brake kit for sale online, but this adds another cost on the build.

 

Thanks in advance for helping

Convert it to 312mm discs first, then worry about the calipers if you don't have enough brakes.

Speak to Questmead, don't bother with the boy racer "yellow/green/stuff pads" i got some Mintex pads for £168 and they dont need warming up, or much bedding in, ideal for fast road or track day, even with standard calipers.
