    Hi all

    Does anyone know if these kits are any good?
    Has anyone used these before?

    I remember hearing somewhere that they were not that good.

    they cant be ADR'd as they dont have dust seals

    but if you need brakes that big on a 900kg car your motor probably isnt either

    I'm not worried if they are ADR approved or not.

    Just NOT having dust seals is BAD or GOOD.
