not safe. basically heat issues.




























and you'd be a poser :p

thanks Azn_C300 keep posting or if you find good info pm me im intereseted

<<After all, if I'm going 150 next to a SL63,...>>

In your C300?

<<Brembo sport pads will generate less dust than what you have now...>>

And this data comes from?

No hate, I am just curious to know why everyone would do this cuz I know this kit is a lot of money I have the Gran Turismo Kit on my M3 cant complain. Also its is going ot be a lot harder to put any kind of wheels one the car already with this weird *** offset the C's have...

The current brake pressure problem is rear bias. We need to resolve it first. I looks like front brake pressure is not there at all, and I don't see any dust on front wheels at all.
Although manual indirectly mentioned that it's rear bias, it needs to increase rear disc instead.

With brembo, it'll be moot point for weak brake pressure. It's just like a weak arm holding a 45.
Wondering why C63 master cylinder is different from non-AMG? Need to think it a little bit before upgrade to bbk.

Was just an example. As stated, I'm doing it for aesthetics purposes and not performance purposes, but you're smart enough to understand what I was getting at. Although you might not be able to accelerate as fast, you can still hit high speeds regardless of HP and having the emergency stopping power if needed is all fine and good.

The FM1000 pads Brembo developed were designed specifically for lower dust and noise, while maintaining high friction coefficient. Your stock metallic pads aren't. And if you want to go away from the FM1000 pads, you can get ceramic pads for your Brembo setup. As of now, there are no ceramic pads for your stocks, unless you want to use generic universal pads. Speak to anyone who's upgraded, they have nothing bad to say about it and do all report less brake dust.

Right, you'd probably need new wheels to get these to fit. Like I said, these aren't for everyone, but for those who were looking, just passing along info. I know I've got plenty of clearance for BBK setup and have been looking at options including the AMGs and D2s. I think Endless also has a kit, but need check more into that. Euroteck just released a BBK line, but they haven't make one for our w204 yet.

And don't get me started on the offsets on the C. I hate how I can't get a deeper lip than what I have now

I wouldn't mind just installing C350 front caliper brackets and rotors, Axxis pads, rear crossdrilled rotors and stainless brake lines. The Brembos would look good though.

i actually think that's also because the front uses ceremic pads. i'm doing a LOT of heavy braking in the C350 loaner they gave me while the C32's in the shop. it just doesn't create a lot of dust, but it does have dust.

the C63 brembo setup will probably be around $4500 like the ones for W203 and people don't have issue with master cylinder not able to handle the brakes.

love the argument of "the car's not that fast to need brembo" fact of the matter is when you are stopping from 100mph you ARE stopping from 100mph doesn't matter if you have 400hp or 150hp. You are still stopping from 100mph. better brakes tend to = shorter stopping distance. unless you are adding stupid weight and ridiculous big wheels as well.

with that said, I love my Brembo setup on my 32 because the way I drive it. BUT I don't feel the need for BBK on the w204 because the different way I drive it. probably just get stainless lines and call it a day on the 204.
