I just recieved some SDR forks to bolt onto my 05 SD, as I now need radial calipers I have been looking around at my options and have come up with my two favourites.

These italians made jobbies which work out just over $1000 australian a set.

Or these Nickel plated beringers at just over $1200 australian a set.

I know I could get a set of 2nd hand Brembos on Ebay for less than half the price, but lets face it brembos are becoming like assholes everybodys got some.

Opinions welcome
Nothing wrong with Brembos from the parts/pads and performance perspective. But if you can afford and want to be different id go with the Italian jobbies !
In the end it will probably come down to who agrees to put cost $950 AUD on the customs declaration
go the billet items... nice
i'd buy brembos, they're popular cause they're good. yoyodyne sell them at good prices.

paul.
For me I think the Beringer is pure brake porn, you gonna get matching disks.

Wonder if they do orange???
why do 2 little CNCed blocks of ally cost 1,000 bucks?
The non radial P4 type are the dogs bollocks.
Do we know what happens when these aftermarket brakes encounter salty, shitty British winter roads? Can they hack it or will they seize up like the brembos? I'd consider a set if they can hack the crud.
