[cannondale>]

vttr are suitable for civic, vios la.. evo pakai vttr, later ppl laugh at u.

or later u hantam 200, want to stop aredy overheat.

 

[PabloIceman]

Cannon, not laugh la! People respek, tabib & clap la .... coz drive without brakes ...

But on a more serious note, dunt think the performance of VTTR so teruk mah! Seen people use it b4. If selalu trek, then betta opt for betta brake kits lor.

vaioT17,

Bro, relax!!! Cannon is 1 of our good fren here in the forum who always share his view... Tht's just his personal view la... No offence taken!!!

I think beside a 6 pot caliper, a good reliable rotor is also very important!!! Its a combination of everything where calipers, pad and rotor must 'match' and work well together!!!

sub7,

Bro, any good review for the XYZ brake kit?! Especially on the track... LOLzzzzzzzzz... The brand name really give me a hard time where i really thought u r joking with me!!!

 

[sub7]

Ok, this review come from an airtrek owner, not me :)

"My airtrek is using XYZ, heavier than evo especially on high speed due to down force and airtrek chassis design. My dyno result 360whp converted to manual, so braking power is very important for me. I'd change to XYZ from Brembo since 2 months ago, not only it can hold this big mod but it allow me to brake harder. I can't afford other branded brake but he find XYZ more affordable and happy with it's result. I have not go inside SIC yet but keen to try one day."

Yah, I'm there in Sepang yesterday with few evos as well. Even another e8 with steel braided brake hose + Project MU rotor + RA pads, it still over-heated and having difficulty to stop.

Sub7,
Braking technique is important. Mayb i give my endless to the guy also cannot stop...........ha haa haa. Why i say this coz a friend of mine did better timing in sepang with brembo and after market rotor compared to the other one who was using AP 6pot. And the other one did better than this two using Alcon 6 pot??
Its best if we can get some data from manufacturer about their stopping power eg: from 100km/h to stand still etc....
But of course my 6pot has totally different feeling compared to ori 4pot. I have seen cars like legacy,civic type-r,wrx using VTTR.But never seen evos in SG using VTTR.

 

[vaioT17]

No, dont get me wrong. I 'm just giving opinion. No hard feeling. :)

 

[sub7]

lanevo6, that's a good point. No doubt my timing sucks.. :P Do you or your friend have special diy air cooling intake from your front bumper to your brake? If only I could channel some air from front to my rotor/brake... it might help.

In SG, the VTTRs are mainly found on the Airtrek ... which go to SIC quite often ..

sub7, can provide more details at converting airtrek to manual ?

some ppl say it is impossible. how can it be done ?

i know gear box can sourced from evo, but how about the paddle and fittings ?

thanks.

I spoked to a fren of mine whom used to be a Seasoned MME and SIC driver.

He is using this on his Civic 2002 version (The model after EK). Pretty impressive but based on his experience, it is not recommended for evo on track or up/down hill driving as it would NOT sustain the type of traction and power/momentum that evo generates as well as heat. Nevertheless, it would still be better than ori brembo + ori pad on street driving, according to him.

And yes, he owned a TD07 400+ hp evo5 plus with his seasoned SIC driving experience, my personal opinion felt his experience does worth more than 2 cents which is why I'm sharing.

He bought his set from a garage in JB for RM7k+ (front 6 pot only) so I guess thats the price after all the shipping, tax and profit making, not to mention some coffee bean for our beloved Kastam Di-Raja !

Now here's my 2 cent..

Personally if you are already on Brembo 4-pot, my advice is for your to invest on better calipers, brake-line(Steel), pads and rotors with your stock brembo's if you intend to change your evo's brembo to VVTR and see how it goes. The price of doing so is most likely cheaper by about half than upgrading to the full VVTR set with the price mentioned.
