(04-22-2015, 06:45 PM)Edian727 I think the difference is in how the pressure is spread across the pad and rotor, were the laws of fluid pressure don't apply. unless im missing something.

i get your point, but if im not misstaken, the r107 4pot is still fittable under a 14" wheel, and not extremely thick.

if i remember correctly 284mm diameter, vs gen1 w126 at 278 and gen 2 at 300mm
a long "smal" pad would seem less good than the later w126 witch presses against a longer part of the diameter + longer out. 

the problem in my world not being stopping power but hot discs+pads, logic would say heat disposal would be less good + tighter to the hub = less braking power compared to the gen2 + hotter discs. 

im not trying to be an arse, but just curious why someone wants to build an adapter to fit the 4pot on a w123 including problems, compared to the in my world "better brakes" from the w126 gen2. if i get a good argument, future w123 brakerebuilds might end up being from a r107 instead of the current w126s.
