All of my HP2 D2s brake better than my Brembo D2s

Pretty simple really. The adapter is just a piece of 10mm flat bar with four holes in it. Wheel clearance is an issue as the caliper is quite chunky and the disc is quite flat compared to the D2 stock disc offset. I can't remember if 18" Avus clear, but the 20" FE wheels need spacers. ET needs to be 30-35 I think.

They stop very well but these discs are very prone to warping and judder and, at £1000 a set, that can get expensive very quickly! This particular car is going to get updated to C5 RS6 discs which are non-floating 2-piece and which are both cheaper and more reliable, at a small weight penalty. They also have more disc offset so we can move the caliper inboard to make more room for wheels.
