Morning all, got access to a computer at work so been a bit naughty......shhhhh!

Been busy handling goods, i mean car parts...got loads ordered and received.
Question for all you in the know.
Has anyone had any dealings with Godspeed Brakes been looking at their kits available and thinking bout getting some AP's front and rear?

What say you?
Any advice would be greatly welcomed.....

Ian Godspeed... very helpfull and straight, has good rep and can make brake kits to order or off the shelf... well known by both rally and track drivers

Never heard anything except good reports

Hope this helps, and no we are not related or friends etc

He is a small business and very helpfull to us Scooby types

Good luck

Who's been talking

Steviepops · 02 Jul 2009, 04:25 PM

Nobby248 Cheers, spoke to Ian the other day he seemed to be on the ball.
i'm running 6 spoke 16" speedlines at the mo. he reckons AP 4 pot 308 kit up front nd the subaru 2 pot calipers for the rear says i'll have to up the wheel size to get AP's all round

Nobby Being a family member of Ian any chance of a discount?

Thinking bout upping the size of me wheels to get AP 6's front and the AP 4's on the rear. me brother "evilution360" (lancer register) reckons the ride quality will be shite if i up to 18's

Maybe a nice 17" wheel been looking at Enkei alloys?

Any thoughts lads?

17" ST6 ALLOY WHEELS SUBARU IMPREZA + TYRES GUN on eBay (end time 04-Jul-09 09:29:19 BST)

brumbrum · 02 Jul 2009, 04:37 PM

i would not go 18" on a classic personally, i drove anSTI RA with them and it was a bit of a bone shaker. Ian Godfrey of Godspeed brakes does a 325mm front brake set up for 17" wheels. They are meant to be a massive improvement over standard size discs ,, here's the link...... 325mm Four Pot Conversions

mikef04 · 02 Jul 2009, 05:54 PM

i have a set of STI7 Gold wheels in mint condition, no tyres if intersted, these clear big brembo's so should clear ap

Steviepops · 03 Jul 2009, 12:38 AM

Nobby your not related to roger are ya?

Checked the link - those ain't bad fo the monies....
Matter of interest thou, wheel size of 5x114 7J x 17 et38 will that fit on a 93 impreza?

Steviepops · 03 Jul 2009, 02:25 AM

Brumbrum noted with thanks....thought 18" would be to much, don't really want to lose the ride quality and want to keep hold of mi front teeth......

Ian don't mess about...he is selling some good products

Mikef04 sorry mate not keen on the style of those wheels.....
Would of thought though someone will buy em on ere?

bugeye_bob · 03 Jul 2009, 07:21 AM

Just make sure he has the goods on stock ready to go, I had a issue last year with him over goods, took me a while and a lot of time to get sorted.

Steviepops · 03 Jul 2009, 08:02 AM

Bob i had a good old conversation with him on the dog and bone, he reckoned one/two days turn around and the kits would be sent out.

I suppose we all hav our off days, maybe that was his
