Hi, I want to know anyone here that has bought and fitted the "refurbished original" 4 pot Brembo brake kit (not those Taiwan replicas) which you can now find a lot in mudah for around RM3500 to RM 5000?

I just want to know your experience so far owning these brake kit and whether it is a good investment cause I'm really thinking of getting it.

I know some ppl will say "why need BBK and all, it will make your car heavy and really waste your money change better pads, SBH and change oil will do etc..... "

Reasons that my car need BBK:-

1) I've been driving this car for few years now with new brembo pads rotors, change oil and all, but still the car's brake is really not enough
2) Car has been tuned. Its brakes is not so great even when it is stock
3) Definitely looks better
4) Its my car tongue.gif

Please share your experience and don't be shy smile.gif, i really want to know before i make a decision.

long as u are sure its genuine, i am told there are unscrupulous buggers selling replicas as 'refurbished originals'....  if you can disassemble the calipers, look at the machining work around the seals.... thats where the difference will show.

all the best

*dah ade one kaki kene, 6 pots 5k.... yea~ quoted as original refurbs but our mech says they are replicas. Machining on the inside x sama. tried to find the seller, guy says his supplier said its original rebuilds for sure and now has blocked my friend.
if i remember correctly pads are compatible, rebuild kit, and its weight tbh im not sure.

That's what i worried about, those unscrupulous sellers saying its refurbished ori but its actually fake
