Title: Uprating Beta brakes (cheaply) Post by: droptop on June 15, 2012, 10:04:53 AM Is there a cross-brand (Fiat-Alfa-Lancia) brake set-up I could fit on the spider under 15" wheels to uprate the brakes (front in particular) without spending the price of another car doing so?
I had a Fiat 132 back in 1981 and it always sticks in my mind as having fantastic brakes and that got me wondering if there is anything you could reccomend? Local breakers are full of modern(ish) '90's and '00's italian four stud cars so getting them isn't a problem but I'm looking for a lazy solution and not a week-long festival of fitting and failing. I'm aware I'll need to blank off the secondary brake lines and possibly adapt the flexible lines, but that is part of the task and uanvoidable. All suggestions welcome Title: Re: Uprating Beta brakes (cheaply) Post by: droptop on June 15, 2012, 10:27:44 AM Being of the "ready, fire, aim" school of thought, I posted the question before I read the "Brakes" section and now I think I've answered my own question once again. Mind you, I DID say I'm lazy, so there's the proof.
Anyway, I'm going to leave the post up for the short term in the hopes... |
