  • Brakes (Upgrade)

    Ok guys and gals. Probably one of the most important parts of the car.

    I am not prepared to muck around with these unless there is a reputable company offering an upgrade like Brembo etc. Are there any options out there for a front disk and pad upgrade?

    Possibly DS3 Racing brakes?

    What's most cost effective.

    Also does the warranty stay un affected if DS3 Racing brakes are fitted as they are a genuine part(s)?

    I know Dave at Flashremapping was possibly also looking into this as the 200bhp 240ftlb remap could do with more STOP.

    Maybe we can give him a hand with a solution.

    Probably a good idea to stick some EBC Red Stuff pads in as a starter, i'm not sure but aren't the front disks the same as the new C3?

      I have a THP, I don't know if the brake would be the same as the c3, they are noticeably bigger than the diesel models. Do you think red or yellow stuff would be a noticeable improvement?

          Surely though, with the amount of equipment the PSA group share, there would be an EBC pad for the DS3. Has anyone got a photo or diagram of a front brake pad on a DS3? Or could one of the dealers (John or BF76) post a diagram?

            There's Brembo Cross-Drilled And Vented Discs Available On eBay Aswell As Brembo & Green Stuff Pads To Fit The OEM Calipers, No Mention Of Bremo Calipers For The DS3 Mind =/

            Just Email Some Companies ?

              I cant see the green stuff on eBay. Have you got the link. They dont have them on the genuine website. I would be careful buying brake bits on eBay. I don't care of they are a few quid cheaper, I probably would get them from the brands actual shop.

                I don't think you're gonna find a full Brembo upgrade to be the most cost effective option ^^

                      I have checked with ebc. They don't do the DS3 yet. I emailed them and they replied very quickly. No estimate of when they will be out, I think they are probably the best option, when out.

                          For those already addicted to nicotine, quitting the use of e-cigarettes may lead to withdrawal symptoms, including anxiety, irritability, difficulty concentrating, mood swings, and more. These symptoms can hinder their quitting process. 悦刻四代煙彈

                            If you have liver or kidney problems, using Cialis can be risky because these organs play a crucial role in metabolizing and excreting the drug. 犀利士真假
