Default eBay S2000 BBK

Hi all,

What are your opinions of this BBK on eBay, apparently it uses the CLio 3 RS Brembo Calipers with 350Z discs, looks good to me but would this be a decent upgrade ?

Brake bias is going to be severely shifted to the front if you are using that with stock rears.
This is just from a quick google telling me the piston size is 4x40mm on that caliper, feel free to verify if this is indeed correct.
Plenty of heat capability in that rotor but also plenty of weight since it's not a two-piece.
Mostly OEM parts so should be fairly good quality.

Ksports are close to this price too. 6-pot 284mm - would consider that a better upgrade - the brembo's will more than likely be heavier - and not 6 pot...either way - you need 17's with spacers.

Thanks, good shout on the K-Sports. I didnt see those. In hindsight I think id prefer that option even though it's a 3 month wait.

Any other good options ?

I wouldn't call the K-sport 284mm setup an upgrade at all, but I guess it depends on what you want to achieve.
