BRIDE Seats - Real vs Fake

Telling the difference between a Real BRIDE seat and a Fake BRIDE seat can be tough, but here are some pointers below to get you started. The seats below are of the STRADIA II model. Real being on the left and Fake being on the right. Next week we'll un-box a BRIDE Zeta III Seat and BRIDE Rails and show you the included paperwork, also known as the "Birth Certificate" for genuine BRIDE items....

ENDLESS Brake Technology - ME22 Compound

Choosing the right brake pad compound for the job is like choosing the right oil and tyre, a lot depends on the application and those conditions. Sometimes you want to stick with what you know, but sometimes the grass really is greener (blue in this case) on the other side. There are some compounds with a large operating window which are very forgiving to use, this is where Endless ME22 really shines....

TECH: Floating Discs Part Three

After you've installed and enjoyed your Girodisc two-piece discs, beaten them up on the racing circuit and won some trophies, they will eventually need replacing. How often they need replacing will depend on many factors, including vehicle weight, tyre choice, horsepower modifications, ABS settings, brake pad compound and many more. The harder and heavier the brake conditions, the quicker the discs will normally wear out and need replacing....

TECH: Floating Discs

Even taken your car to the track and experienced a long or mushy brake pedal? Not only can this be caused by a fading brake pad, had you considered it could be caused by your discs? When steel or iron is heated, it expands and the higher the heat value, the higher the expansion value. Single or two-piece fixed non-floating discs distort when heated, which causes them to 'cone'. This could be your problem... When a disc cones, it means the outer diameter edge will curve outwards because only on...

NZ Made Strap-Drive System (Designed by Prosport Auto)

Over the past year, several Porsche customers have come to us wanting to convert to an ENDLESS disc brake system because of the advanced performance (longevity, pedal feel, temperature resistance etc) that ENDLESS products provide. The Porsche factory disc design is drilled and while this is good for performance, it does cause cracking very quickly through those drilled holes. There are current aftermarket disc solutions for these cars, but often the hats wear out quickly where the bobbins ...
