AP Racing OR Alcon ?

[StevenCSL]

Hi all,

I want a big brake kit on my CSL as I do trackdays often.

I was thinking of the AP racing kit, front and rear. A friend is riding this setup for several years and find it fantastic in all ways ! Also I read a lot of positive comments on the AP's.

But now, Thorney Motorsports told me they will soon have an even more better kit from Alcon. But of course, this kit will have to proof itselves first. Or can they be sure, this kit is better than the AP's ?

Some info:

AP - Two piece calliper - flexes more under use

TMS/Alcon - mono block calliper, less flex, much stronger

AP - Front disk semi floating, 355mm size

TMS/Alcon - Front disk full floating, 365mm size

AP - rear disk solid (same as OEM)

TMS/Alcon - rear disk full floating (separate ali bell, 100mm larger)


Price will be almost the same...

What do you think guys ? AP or Alcon ? What would be a good choice for me ? I am not a real racer, just doing trackdays like Nurburgring, Spa-Francorchamps, Brands Hatch, etc...

Let's hear
