Can always google for Tanly address.

Project Mu brake pads can try Stamford tyres.

Call up to stamfort, no type NS even normal bestop also out of stock!
Then try tanly , currently no brembo sport available! :?

For the normal brembo blank, is fine for brake but a bit juddering when high speed braking, after 20k mileage found some minor thermal crack also!

How much did you spend to buy and fit that set of Euro R (stock) brake kit onto your ES? I know redrilling the rotor is a must. what else? direct fit?

But at 300mm you can't use 15 inch rims anymore... what size rims you using to clear the rotor/caliper? pads are aplenty by proj miu, endless, ferodo, mintex... i'd suspect, or are there?


seems like an interesting proposition... bottom line, how much for the whole setup? haha yeah, i might be interested not becos my current 262 is not enough, but becos I just want to have some options when time comes for me to upgrade (crazy fast enough ... that is...)


and yes, got to use a bigger brake master pump too... and upgrade the abs as well... or remove it ...

Bro MCDS,
How do you upgrade the brake master pump and abs for our ES? Do U know of any workshops or stockists that does the upgrade or have the parts?

Bro Wanhuo

this type of question best to ask at meetup - here not so good to announce... wait the supplier get all kinds of questions, and no sale becos all 'want to know' only...

I can't do that to my suppliers... wastes their time and next time i go, they gonna charge me to 'saboing' them...

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Checked with Bro Bravo.
He doesn't carry Brembo Max anymore. Not popular. Only Brembo Sports.
But I only need a replacement for my current stock rotors.
Any other recommendations?
