Can only really comment on the EBC brand for personal experience, the only problem I ever had related to those calipers was trying to find a higher enough temperature paint, every time the paint stripped off due to the heat produced!!!

LOL glad you told me that before I painted them, will just probably leave them bare cast to avoid chipping and cracking, on another note, have you tried the yellowstuff? And on which tracks have you used the red stuff?

I would expect the Konis to fit, but wouldn't know if you needed ph1 or ph2 mounts / links. I have the discontinued Konis if you needed to get any info off of them.

Yup brands hatch is heavy on brakes, so it is good to know, will use the car mostly ok track so a track oriented pad is something I want, just tried ferodo and stoptech so having this Info on the ebc' will come handy

That's a good point on the mounts I would dare to think that it will use ph1 as the cars they are intended for are lighter, I'm dealing on getting some FK high tec shocks which are said to be made in the same plant as Konis, they are 30% stiffer and shorter to acomodate lowering springs, just waiting on confirmation on stock, fingers crossed!
