147 GTA

Re: ***Definitive 147/156 GTA brake upgrade thread***

Picked up the GTA and the brakes are perfect. Lots op stopping power although I haven't tried full breaking ofcourse. A little bit of running in is better.

Take a look at the picture:

The brake pads where Ferrodo type 4446 ??

Calipers had brembo imprinted on the back and Alfa Romeo on the front (ofcourse).

It was amazing how light the calipers were. I would have expexted them the be heavy?

October 7th at Zolder is gonna be the real test.

I can't wait to pick the GTA up this evening. Would be nice to approach a trafficlight without the wobbly effect.

Price is not yet decided. No reply from Italy nor the importer.
