Kirkyyb36 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Looking at a brake upgrade kit when my cars finish.. Ive seen skylines etc using d2's is there any d2 kits for a glanza? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 There is, look at the K-sports as well, out the same factory I believe. Will have a hard time trying to find a set of wheels that will fit over them though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hunty Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 WMS on here do some good kits as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ashep91 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Ksport are excellent for stopping power cant vouch for the others but I run ksport absolutely brilliant however wheels over them are a nightmare i have rota grids with 10mm huncentric spacers which fit well and dont stick out of the arch I will update my build thread soon with some pics Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TimD Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 WMS with decent pads are more than adequate, especially for road use. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kirkyyb36 Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Ok guys thanks, it would be for track use aswel as thats my future plans.. But road use for now (when its going) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Keri-WMS Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Our kits are race bred at heart, most of our customers are trackday guys though as they are far more common than actual race cars. That said, there's a chap who races his Starlet with our brakes in the TinTop series (his arch enemy is a Tomcat Turbo!), and another customer won the Dunlop TVR Chalenge with our brakes a couple of year back. Oh and there's an MR2 Turbo with our brakes front and rear in the Nippon Challenge too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I've ran wms and currently have have d2. Both great quality brakes I'd say the wms ones are better fitment and friendlyier for fitting under wheels the d2s just look epic and fill my wheels so well with the bells and rotors and when ordered the just make a Set and post them. When i got the wms from Keri years ago am sure it was being done in batches so was a slightly longer delay Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Keri-WMS Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 We don't PLAN to make them in batches.....what happens every now and then is we run out, then when we get more in they sell out straight away! We're getting better at having the kits in stock most of the time though. We're planning to add alloy bells/rotors this year as an option, which adds a bit more visual bling (and saves weight ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TimD Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I wasn't trying to say they aren't upto the task on track, I run a DS1.11 pad in my WMS brakes, they're brilliant! It is a track car, and not road legal, so they only get used in anger. More than happy with the kit, and also the service from Keri is very good as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Either way I don't think anyone would be disappointed with either kit Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The devil's in the details, we spend AGES getting everything spot on. The trouble with a "tweek it yourself" kit is it doesn't cover things like disc thermal expansion. A 300mm disc at 20'c becomes roughly a 301.5mm disc at 500'c, so you need to make sure there's room inside the caliper for that increase! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
