Default AP Racing 4 Piston Price

Hi Matt, I am after a price on an AP Racing 4 piston kit for a BA II XR8 ute.
If you could include what comes with it i.e. type of rotors, lines etc that would be great.
I have been told that this set up is smaller than the brembo 4pot kit? Is this true? When I went to fit the 4 pot brembos to my 18 inch Speedy infernos it narrowly fouled on the spoke, so hopefully the AP's will be a tad smaller.
Thanks, Todd.

We are looking at modifying the Brembo kits by moving the front caliper and disc inwards a bit to clear more rims but this will be done in the next couple of weeks hopefully.
The 4 piston AP Racing calipers are good and for a complete front and rear kit are between $5000 and $5500.

Oh, if thats the case I will look towards the Brembos then.
Prices for just a front kit in black?
I think I need 335mm(?) not the 355(?)mm rotors for my rims. I reckon a few people will buy this set up if it allows clearance on smaller(ish) rims.
Thanks.

The calipers only come in red sorry and the disc size will be 355mm but in a two piece set up but better ofset for 18" wheels and larger. I will post a new thread up when we do the first kit and will also have some prices then as well.

Any idea how much further in the caliper would need to go to clear your wheels?

Sorry but I no longer have the calipers with me, I returned them to the original owner. There really wasn't much in it to be honest, if I remember correctly the calliper was clear on the inside of the rim but it was fouling on the spoke.
Wheels are 18inch Speedy Infernos.
I would be more than happy to trial your new setup if you need a guinea pig haha
