    Do the JCW's come with the 4 piston brakes?

    Not sure, but I think it would need them.

    I had thought that (like the JCW Countryman) they are standard brakes calipers painted red. However an article in Auto Express says they are larger. Note: this article may be wrong.

    The official MINI press release just calls them "red":

    May need to hunt through RealOEM and check...

    From what I have heard, they are standard CM breaks painted red with the JCW logo.

    they could be a larger version of the JCW CM brakes...however here is an interesting thought...the GP2 has the brake system from a 135i M sport...the standard 135i M brakes come in a 5 lug pattern....might be worth looking into

    Hey, JacMac, did you get those images from the configurator or a shop job, noted the JCW Paceman front plate logo. :)

    I like the silver and red combo, BTW. :Thumbsup:

    Hi Don,

    Made them with the UK configurator. If you get one, please save a test drive for me @ MITM ;)

    I'm sure people will track them. Just pointing out that they are not as light and nimble as the MINI hardtop. Some groups (like BMW CCA) may categorize it an SUV and therefor not permitted at HPDE events.
