| AP Racing WRX Brake Upgrade Kit - Only $3499 inc GST |
|
AP Racing Brake upgrade kit fitted to our V-Sport WRX and tested by Warren Luff at Hot Tuner.
|
|
In Motor Magazine's 'Bang for your Bucks 2011' (featured in the August Issue on sale now) the standard 2011 WRX placed second, however, one criticism was the performance of its brakes. Brendan Reeves was quoted as saying "...The brakes only lasted for a lap and a half..."
Warren Luff drove the V-Sport WRX with an AP Racing brake upgrade in the 2011 Hot Tuner Challenge and this is what he had to say.
"The AP brake upgrade on the V-Sport WRX certainly addressed one of the key weaknesses of the WRX, lap after lap you had confidence to brake late and know there would be no fade or loss of brake performance, as is common with the standard WRX brakes. Certainly for any WRX owner who is looking to do regular track days, this upgrade is a must"
The V-Sport Subaru WRX was fitted with the following quality
components for the front brakes:
- AP Racing CP5200 4 piston calliper;
- AP Racing 48 vane slotted 330mm x 28mm Discs;
- V-Sport anodised alloy hats and brackets;
- Ferodo DS2500 Pads
- Goodridge street legal braided brake lines |

Brackets are individually designed for each application in hard anodised aluminium or steel.

Brake Hose
In most cases the appropriate Goodridge TUV approved steel braided hoses with nylon armour protection are supplied with each kit.
Fixings
Each kit contains a comprehensive installation guide and list of tightening torques. All mounting bolts & nuts are of high tensile steel and come with a sachet of Loctite 262. Shim washers are supplied in each kit to allow accurate positioning of the caliper on the brake disc, and allow for tolerance variations in different hubs / uprights

IMORTANT NOTE - ROAD APPROVAL FOR BRAKE HOSES
In order to meet the requirements of the TUV, the FMVSS106, SVA and SAE 1401 standards for brake lines for road going vehicles, all fittings must be permanently attached to the hose. Reusable or threaded attached fittings may not be used. All fittings must be crimped or swaged to the hose whether the hose is rubber or braided steel. All Goodridge factory manufactured brake line kits are crimped and meet the requirements of the DOT and SAE. For full TUV approval, lines must pass a series of tests and be assembled in an approved assembly unit that meets all the requirements of the TUV office, including traceability. Consult the braided steel brake line experts at VSport with your enquiries. |
