Alcon Brake issues - please look

[7.77]

I take it you're still running with RS14s then Shim? And all based on the recommendation of a Pork Gayman driver :whistle: :hahaha:

had changed my stoptech kit because of an advice on using rs14 (from a uk dealer :bigcry !! It was a real shit, thought the kit was faulty and bought another bbk. before fitting it i changed the rs14 by RS29 (the french number one track pad).....and realise rs29 are far far far away from rs14 !! The stoptech bbk was just :smt007.

finally i sold it because i already had my new kit wich was sold with ...........RS14 :banghead: (wich came from...........uk :birdman

i just wait my new rs29 from............the states !

NEVER TRUST SOMEONE GIVING ADVICE ON FITTING RS14 FOR TRACK USE (or fit them on your clio estate)

[shimmy]

Rs14 are the business and as far as i am concerned you can all keep on using the rock hard and flakey Rs29

you must all have lead feet!:thumbs:

Faakkin hell, tomorrow morning some rs14's will arrive on my doorstep!!!

I'll be using them at anglesey on saturday, so I will see if i get any judder......



why do you all hate them then? don't they cope with the heat?



apart from that, good luck with the rs29's nz m3

Feel your pain northernjim! :bigcry:

I just picked up my CSL last weekend from Bexley with an AP BBK upgrade with RS14s!

I'll be putting them to the test at Silverstone later this month. If they're good enough for Shim then they're good enough to me, after all he's got a fair bit more weight to slow down than me! :hahaha:

hmmm bedded the rs14's in on friday night

Initial thoughts were - "wow", just felt so much better than the ferodo ds2500's. speed just drops away with so little pressure:thumbs:

at anglesey on saturday, they did a bit of moanoning in the morning, then I had an instructor in the afternoon - tried to get me to do this silly thing called trail braking?

so lighter longer braking it was - feck me did they grumble and rumble:bigcry::bigcry::bigcry::bigcry:

It even feels like my discs are warped again....:clown:

I'll take them out clean them, and the calipers, check everything is tight, and put the ferodo's back in see if that clears it up ( it was my intention to just use the pagids for track anyway...)

and if that does not sort it out then i will just have to go back to the standing it on its nose type of braking i like going on track days to do:whistle:
