Just some mods to share.

Tarox FMM disc + EBC redstuff

I had them replaced front and back.

Looking good but you have some serious cash tucked away for those babies all round, or a blooming good contact somewhere

Hmm interesting but would like to see more pictures! By the look of it they are just disc upgrades as I can see. So are those discs the same size as stock? And if so I presume you using the factory calipers?

Yup, stock size disc with OE calipers. Will post some more pics when weather and lighting permits for photo taking!

Do you have the part numbers?

Do you have the part numbers?

EBC Redstuff Front Brake Pads
DP32092C

EBC Redstuff Rear Brake Pads
DP32053C

The Tarox don't have specific parts number as they were made to order and I order from the factory directly.

Hope this helps!

That is good to know as other models come with smaller discs up front.

Sports brake discs (340mm) standard with all THP200 engines and Hdi 163 engines with 19" wheels.

Yea, I'd have gone with your Brembo if my stock setup was not the sports. I believe the 340 setup is good bigger to stop the car with the upgraded discs and pads.

Track day use is another matter of course, but now for me is enough for fast road for sure!

Btw, please look into the upgraded s/s braided hoses solutions for OE setup,I really want to get something from your shop (u might need to sort out the VAT issue for non EU customers too, that's a big hurdle for me as I do not get those VAT surcharge from other UK based shops.)

We are currently looking into stainless steel braided brake lines for the RCZ, and will add these once we have this worked out.

I am not sure what you mean about VAT, but you can always PM me about what you are talking about. We can say that VAT is added for all sales within the EU. If other shops do not mention VAT, then they have buried it within the cost somewhere. However this subject can be discussed outside of this thread

Remember we will do our best to beat any other prices for the items we sell, and we feel we have the best prices out there.

Wonder how easy it is to upgrade to the 340mm brakes?

Caliper mounting is the key. This would have to be addressed and would require modifications. Not sure if anyone (company) would be looking into this to be honest as the RCZ still does not have the attention of brake companies. However if we do come across this or are able to work this out, we would let you and everyone know. Probably need a donor car that does not have the sport brakes.

Easiest way for now is to get the Peugeot parts for the 340 and then upgrade whatever discs and pads you find best fit.

I did that with my old 206GTi and upgraded to 306GTi6.

This solution keep up the cost to a (relatively) minimum with an acceptable result.

In the market, apart from Steven, only Tarox provides brake system upgrade solution for the non-Sports system. Their solution is 340mm discs with their 10 pots calipers.

Btw, I'm NOT associating with any of the manufacturers, only did lots of searches and studies on these things.

In layman's terms, what is the point of all of this and what exactly are you trying to achieve?

Better braking I would suggest..
