After 8 years I think money spent on the AP kit was the best money I ever spent on the CSL......if I was to recommend to anyone buying a CSL to track it would be the first thing on any list to buy

Great balance when braking hard.

This is probably because when installing the rear 4 piston calipers, the brake bias moves more to the rear of the car.

Turn your traction control all the way off.......

No everything was off, Adem said if you selected the M button this held the rear pads to the disk's but I even left that alone

Superb balance under braking, I have only ever had them fitted front and rear as bought the car with them on but certainly no complaints from me. Everyone comments on how good the brakes are, particularly given the weight of the car.

Do any of you guys who've done the front upgrade fancy selling me your old OEM CSL front callipers?

You can have my entire OEM brake setup, (front and rear with RS29's all around) if you make an offer, I would consider.
