K-Sport 8pots - Any good?

Does anybody have experience of the k-sport brake kits? The 8 pots appear to be good value.

Thanks

Bought a set and fitted them to my old Evo.

Never found any reason to knock them and done a whole year of track days with them. I was also running the car as an every day motor and clocked up 15K that year. The calipers looked a little 2nd hand but then again it was run all through the winter up here in the NE Scotland so the roads are constantly covered in salt for 6 months

Having a cosworth at the same time with AP's i can say that i never really noticed any difference.

Would i buy another set??? yeah suppose i would. Excellent value for money and they do exactly what it says on the tin.

If the CSL didnt have the AP's on when i bought it then id probably have gone for the K-Sports again.

Do your research and choose what will suit your needs best.

Good luck.
