We currently offer 3 variations of Uprated Front Brake Kits for the TR7/TR8, differing by the type of brake disc, or 4-pot caliper supplied. Whether you are upgrading your standard TR7, or modifying to full TR7-V8 specification, select the kit that best suits your needs - or driving style.
Unlike normal brake fluids, Silicone fluid does not absorb moisture, so avoiding corrosion in the system. Under strenuous braking conditions it tends not to 'Boil', and it does not harm paintwork if spilt. Note; before filling with Silicone brake fluid, the entire brake hydraulic system should be flushed out.
