Vari 6 piston 362mm Factory clearance kit
The kit here is the VARI 362mm 6 piston kit and the caliper is made here in Australia and runs an internal dust seal (like AP Racing) and not external dust boots. The brake kit was fitted behind a 18" factory wheel with plenty of clearance and we should be able to do a smaller rotor as well. The kit is being tested on a BF ford and has had no issues at all. The rotors are available in 1 piece or 2 piece and will have 10 holes in the mounting pcd as we use the rotors for two different vehicles and brake kits which is not a problem because Audi and Subaru amongst others do the same thing. The front brake kits will sell for around the $2500 with a 1 piece disc and a 2 piece will be worked out later.
We will be checking it for FG vehicles and also checking for more wheel clearances with some help from our Ford customers.

Is there a brake kit for FG that equals or exceeds Brembos, but is able to fit any FG factory rim? I am looking to fit these http://m.ebay.com.au/itm/18-x-7-5-DE...293?nav=SEARCH wheels for a sleeper look, but the car needs to be able to brake as well as or better than an FPV with Brembos.

Short answer is no as the FG doesn't allow us to move the rotor in enough.

Hi Matt

How did you go with the Vari brakes, are they are worthwhile upgrade on our cars? I see they are advertising them as being able to fit stock wheeels on the FG

We didn't pursue the Vari brakes as the majority of people wanted Brembo to keep the factory look and easier for adr compliance etc.
