I wanted to installed AP Racing and was told that AP do not produce for Benz , is this true

[Carbonrevo_Lawrence]

Not true. Demon using it. He want to dekit. Letting go now

yup this is true

[Quad088]

Understood from ST Power AP do not make for A250, however they can fabricate the holder for calipers , in all about SGD 3.K 

[Merceman]

Anyone knows where AMG BBK is made in? Some think Taiwan? Or Really German made?

If Taiwan, maybe can get direct from there?

[keltanky]

AMG BBK is actually made by BREMBO.

So why need to get BREMBO when AMG is made by BREMBO

[chershen]

AMG. Why pay the same for JBT?

I have asked C&C about Brake Kit , Any installation of brake kit, the warranty will be void . Then I asked is there any AMG brakes for A250, C&C straight answer is NO ! The A45 AMG is similar to A250 , I asked again can the amg brakes be fitted to a250  , another straight answer NO !!. Everything good abour C& C is NO but comes to deposit for  a new car is YES!

Technically maybe can be fitted but if I am C&C I will also say no.. when different option and parts are fitted become a headache for C&C.. mean that I carry more inventory.. need to train more personnel to repair/replace the parts etc..

 

Unless there's a large pool of demand then maybe they will say yes..

A45 AMG dun have this ma?? Got it from web, it did say Edition 1 but i would be surprise if it is not even an option.

with 360 horses, a single big piston brake doesn't sound enuff to stop the car effectively ??

[jasonmaxima]

those brakes look like 4 pistons to me...

 

anyways the A45 brakes are ventilated and perforated brake discs all round in size 350 x 32 mm (13.77 x 1.25 inches) at the front and 330 x 22 mm (12.99 x 0.86 inches) at the rear.

AMGs for me.

 

If its good enough to bring the SLS to a stop, its good enough to stop your car 

[Quad088]

Recently Benzline has AMG brakes for A250, they only sell and do not installed ! However the price is inviting as compare to Brembo and later AP Racing 

[Tykl]

How much for the amk kit for 250? 4 or 6 pots with what size disc?

[daffy]

Ang Mo Kio brakes?

[level z]

AMG brakes anyday anytime.

 

engineered for our cars, tested by Mercedes themselves, OEM fit and finish, QC and factory specifications. what more can you want?

 

brakes aren't something you should skim and save on. ill-fitting bodykits or cheap LED interior lights yes, but brakes and tyres no.

 

even if JBT is 1/4 the price of AMG brakes, i'd still go AMG. if not within budget yet, maybe can save up first?

+1

[Toycarz]

Mar-sir-lee must use AMG lar, else not sart one...

[Tykl]

I am very keen to upgrade my stock brakes to AMG BBK, obviously this will void warranty for the brakes which I'm fine..but am concern that C&C may even void ESP and ABS system. Any thoughts?

Thanks

[Ah Bui]

nope. upgraded to the S65 brakes (12 pot front 8 pot rear) on my S class. no issues, still claim warranty for ABS failure.

 

your results may vary. mod at own risk!

Hahaha!!!!! what a clause!!!!

[Tykl]

Well said... As the saying goes scare don't mod! But jiu si scare ABS system coz that system cost a blood bomb!
