    I've handled a set of these brakes and made up the bells.

    All looked very good - but you got to consider it is a small operation and perhaps the Evo brakes aren't the most common/easiest to make ?

    Yer pays your money and takes yer chance.

    I've got a used set of AP brakes for sale that will fit S/V/C 70 and 850 cars. These are probably the best quality brakes you can buy. They include 4 pot callipers and 325mm discs. Pads are 1/2 worn and discs were 28mm now 27mm thick. £700 plus postage. PM me if interested.
