Bye Bye front R32 brakes. Yes, you are good enough but I don't like the amount of modulation needed to brake in a smooth manner. I guess that's one of the limitations coming from a single piston caliper.
Chrome calipers look extremely shiny. Initially i thought that the rotors come in black haha. It's actually an anti-rust coating which will be removed after a few rounds of braking. Notice the bolts holding the 2 piece rotors in place. Heard from the workshop boss that those bolts can be found on Alcons as well.
Me checking out the front right brakes which are yet to be installed. Taking the opportunity to know more about diff parts of bbks as well.
Red 6 pot with cross drilled and slotted rotors. I didn't request for these rotors because I feel the design is a little too cluttered for my liking, but it ensures better heat dissipation of course.
Finally installed. Yellow brake pads have a range from 0 - 600 degrees. Enough for street use and it does not have as much screeching noise as higher temperature pads.

I'll give a review of the brakes when they are fully bedded in.
