No mods planned yet but toying with the JCW Stage 1 upgrade ... or should I wait until Stage 2???

[Marcus]

I think you should wait for the Stage 2, when will it be released?

I guess not until after the factory JCW is released. I don't see why they'll offer an upgrade to meet that spec until a while after the production cars come out. I've no official information though.

[Fredrik]

Karl, are you going for the JCW stage 2 upgrade?

[KPKalle]

It would help to know if and when Stage II is coming. And does Stage II include Stage I or is it an add-on? I don't want to waste money on Stage I unnecessarily I need to speak to my dealer but he still doesn't know anything about Stage II.

At least the JCW R56 brakes seem to be available now.

Keep us posted!

blir det special price for you my friend, får du gärna ta med ett set till mig....

[KPKalle]

Ordered now ... they'll be fitted on 4th October

[KPKalle]

By the way, this caliper and disc package DO NOT fit with all wheels and, according to MINI, are NOT compatible with the R50/2/3 at all!

The compatibility list for the R56 (and presumably R55 and R57) is listed here http://www.mini2.com/forum/attachmen...1&d=1221497294

The package comes in a metre long box weighing 40kg. I think I might struggle carrying that with me Besides, as I said above, officially these brakes aren't compatible with the R50/2/3 ...
