Yellow in colour with csl cup logo, used for one season so only a year old.
2k for all four callipers, 4 used discs and pads, discs still perfect and crap loads of life left in them.

Switching to AP's as I feel the peddle they give is more suited to my driving style. Nothing wrong with them, 100% perfect, look great in yellow and work really well as a trackday calliper.
This is a bargain and I can't believe someone ain't took my hand off. They going on fleebay and pistonheads when I get back from my holiday in two weeks.

:hahaha: well I haven't 'gone' Alcon' yet
But I'm sure they'll be fine for what I want, reading Titan's post it sounds like it's a pad issue and not the calipers? If Radders has used them for a season they can't be that bad surley?

there is no performance difference at all. at least 4 cars ran them in the csl cup last year and no braking performance difference at all.
they seem to last longer than AP's and don't warp discs.

sold.
Good buy they are, perfect for a road car coz pad wear is fook all compared to AP's, as Mark said when racing the feel isnt as precise as AP's but they will be more than up to a shed load of trackdays :thumbs:

Good job - that's one of the main selling points of the Alcon's for me as I dont have uber deep pockets :hahaha:
I just hope I don't experience the trouble that Titan is having with his new Alcon setup in the form of judder.

Master cylinder too small compared to caliper sizes.
As stated, mine where great, but just lacked the feel that the APs gave on initial bite, perfect for road and swift track, but IMO need a master cylinder and brake bias for racing and balls out track work.
