    AP Brakes discs for OEM calipers?

    Lol I didn't mean it like that, but some people say something is made by a company when in fact it isn't! A lot of companies use blanks sourced from someone like pagid for example, then just machine grooves into them - this is not the same as actually manufacturing them hence my comment...

    Knocking noise from front left hand wheel area

    Spoke to another chap with a similar problem today and his was a top mount. Anyone know how much a new OEM one from Renault is?

    AP Brakes discs for OEM calipers?

    Ah I see. So the rotors are made by pagid. And do Reyland actually manufacture the bells do you know? Reselling is not the same as actually manufacturing it, not being awkward just saying dude! When do you think you'll have them fitted? Get some pics up when you do they look great :)

    That is cool^ I don't think those discs are actually made by Reyland though are they?

    AP Brakes discs for OEM calipers?

    Yes you are right pads are the thing that will make the most difference, then fluid and lines etc. However, I am a whore like you and love the look of the 2 piece ones! :D Found a pic of the Hi-Spec K-tech ones on another forum, the guy is impressed with their performance too:

    AP Brakes discs for OEM calipers?

    They don't stop me well enough on a 'private track' when hammering from say 100 to 30 hence my comment! It's common knowledge they're not amazing as standard. I know they good but there is room for improvement. I have done track days before just not in my Clio that's what I meant.

    Knocking noise from front left hand wheel area

    Thanks dude. Was it really noticeable while driving before or were the symptoms as we have described above?

    You know me well my man! I would like to try a track day in the Clio I think but in standard brakes I wouldn't feel confident. Don't want to bin my daily!!

    Knocking noise from front left hand wheel area

    Me too. Only front left side. It doesn't thud over bumps or anything but at say 30mph on crappy surfaces it kinda sounds 'loose' if that makes sense. I've had it in the air and checked the drop links and other bits and no movement at all so must be a shock or top mount. Is it an arse to change...

    AP Brakes discs for OEM calipers?

    Yes I hate those parts that rust too. Mine look ok but I guess they oem Renault parts then! Thinking the Cazan discs may be the ones to go for its just tedious they are not supplies with bolts [emoji58] Surely even OEM sized but two piece discs will still perform better than OEM single piece...

    AP Brakes discs for OEM calipers?

    Yes that makes sense dude. There is a place called 'trident racing' in silver stone that will sell the right bolts you need they are a great shop for motorsport grade bolts and parts. Try them for the longer bolts. Does anyone have any info on the hi-spec kit then? Had their brakes before and...

    AP Brakes discs for OEM calipers?

    Yea I know the design is different in the Rallye was just showing the quality of the AP set up its mint! Ok so those Cazans shouldn't need long bolts then. Surely there will be less thread in contact if they can't bolt in as far? It may be fine but think I'd source some longer high tensiles...

    AP Brakes discs for OEM calipers?

    Yes was going to say I think that's fine as I am sure my AP brakes on the Rallye have those on. So they do not supply the bolts required to bolt the calipers to the strut once the bigger discs have been fitted? There is also this Godspeed kit, note the comment about the bolts...

    330mm big brake kit

    Sorry to drag up an old thread, I came across this whilst researching two piece discs. I think there is a lot of confusion regarding 'floating' discs on here. I have a pal at Jamsport with 'proper' 'floating' discs on his Honda Civic. Yes they make noise as the discs are loosley bolted to the...

    Also what type were your previous discs as they look different to the PF set up. Which is better? Cheers.

    AP Brakes discs for OEM calipers?

    That's a bit poo. So you're not able to bolt the calipers on as they didn't come with bolts?? Surely they should? Hi spec so gold coloured stuff too. And you say they do a kit for the Clio?
