This must be a scam? Brembo content

[Crybert]

Yeah that was the reason behind my initial thoughts of going for the 300's but then if you want to run 15s it won't work

 

[SmokeyTheBandit]

I went for the Megane 3 RS one's, so he is now officialy sold-out :grin:
Already testfitted a set of these on the sunflower, looked absolutely awesome but these ones where horrible (corrosion knackered them completely).
In my opionion an even better option than the 197 ones, more pad and an even better fit to the 300mm discs.

 

[welshname]

Puremotorsport brackets with the better offset, 300mm Scenic discs and Brembo OE pads (for now). Got a bargain on the pads and pins so in total my conversion will have cost me £593 including delivery. Very chuffed!

EDIT: Well, except for them not fitting under my wheels lol! I need Cup Turinis so if anyone knows of any, give us a shout :smirk:

Offset difference is 15mm iirc so sticking some 15mm front spacers on will achieve the same.

I am buying a set to go under 2118s. I have heard of MK2 Brembos going under them with custom brackets and spacers but would the MK3 go under and would there be any benefit?

 

[Crybert]

Well the mk3 are newer and look better.

Depends what you're after really. The brackets I got were only £100. Most other brackets are much more. I'd assume that the brackets for the mk3s will be very expensive

 

[SmokeyTheBandit]

You so everyone knows the Megane Mk3 calipers work with exactly the same brackets as the Clio ones :up:

 

[Crybert]

i never knew this! Gutted! The mk3 calipers are stunning!

 

[Crybert]

Can you tell me mate. The mk3 calipers you bought. Was it £140 for the pair?!

 

[SmokeyTheBandit]

i never knew this! Gutted! The mk3 calipers are stunning!

I had the oppertunity to buy a set of mk3 275 calipers, but as no one has ever tried this before i first opted to check if it would fit on the 172/182.
In the end, i could mount them on the exact same brackets as i already use for my 225 brembo setup.
The calipers and pads are a bit bigger and because of this you have more pad on the disc -> even greater stopping power :up:

 

[bozothenutter]

Ooh I like this....are the 275 brembo's available in silver?
What pad do they use?
What are the piston sizes/mbc size?

 

[Crybert]

I should really be getting some cut of this guys calipers. Think since this thread has went up most of them have sold!

Ha ha, he'd probably think otherwise given your opening gambit was to question his integrity! lol

 

[Crybert]

Haha I did think that..still proved its legit lol

 

[Rubicon_]

That is a bargain! A set of red ones would go well on the trophy @cpaterson76 :wink:

These are allot more common in silver than they are in red, pretty much the same with the older style brembo's though.

Pads of the mk3 275 calipers :
I already have new pins and these pads here, and i can confirm that these are indeed correct!
Brembo part number : P54040

 

[Justin_16vT]

Is that for 300mm discs? @SmokeyTheBandit

 

[steviekyle13793]

Can anyone confirm if the MK3 Brembos will go under 15" 2118s? I understand they will need custom brackets and spacers but if I can get them to work I will go for it. Also, I assume I would need the 280mm discs as the 300mm may be too much of a squeeze.

 

[cpaterson76]

That is a bargain! A set of red ones would go well on the trophy @cpaterson76 :wink:

They would do mate..... I weighed up all the factors and couldn't justify based on the braking power I get from the existing with good pads......

They do look pretty though:hearteyes:

You will need to mill of a few mm on the normal 200 brembo's already to get them to fit on the 280mm discs. These are even bigger so unless you mill of even more and basically remove the structure it will absolutely not fit. To note i can bearly get a hair between the calipers and my renault oz f1 16" wheels.

@cpaterson76
Same reason why I'm dragging my feet. I'd just love a set of Brembos!

 

[Crybert]

Just to let folk know I received mine safe and sound..and brand new! Over the moon with them. Now to fit them

 

[Lal B3N]

Just a heads up, they are only around £290-300 from Renault for a set of calipers also. I recently got a set of silver 197 ones for £290 from a Renault dealer on ebay brand new.

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

FYI I stock pads for the mk3 RS Megane 250/265/275 Brembo 4pots . Brembo OE , Ferodo Racing DS2500, DS3000 and DS1.11 :up:

Yeah but I paid £240 for the nice red ones? Surely it's a no brainier!

 

[Lal B3N]

Absolutely. I was just meaning if people struggle to find them if that guy from Poland sells out, they aren't as dear as people would think from the dealers. I expected them to be a lot more expensive.

 

[-Jamie-]

They must of dropped in price then if that's for MK3, they were 200+ a caliper

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

Think they're on about the mk2 Meganes 230/mk3 Clio 197 Brembos mate @-Jamie-

 

[VR46-G@Z]

You can guarantee these are genuine, just havent been obtained genuinely by the seller.....but who cares!:smile::up:

 

[Oggy997]

I think the pound is strong against the zsloty which will help with the price

 

[VR46-G@Z]

Yes definitely Oggy! I worked with a Pole in Norway and Nowegian Kroner to Zsloty exchange meant he was on about 38 quid an hour.....!😊

 

[Oggy997]

It's actually down a little, it was 1:6, now 1:5.5

 

[sikora]

He's sold out now by the looks of it

 

[VR46-G@Z]

I'm sure he will pinch some more from where he pinched the last batch...:tongueclosed:

 

[sikora]

Actually looks like a Renault dealer to me:

[Bear Head]

I've just bought some tonight. He accepted 220

@jesus @Cribert

How long did it take for him to mark as posted and to actually get some notifications that it's on way? Was your total delivery about 10 days I read?

 

[Crybert]

Yeah about 10 days. It was marked as posted maybe 3 days after I ordered..

 

[jesus]

@jesus @Cribert

I had to message him asking for a tracking number then they were marked as posted a few days after. He replies quite quickly but doesn't seem to know how to use eBay properly, which isn't really a problem if he's just starting out.
