As we all know, if the brake model is not selected correctly, the foot feel will be soft, or even reversely upgraded. TEI has replaced the old with the new and launched four or five new models, totaling 14 models, covering the piston area from 45-58. So how do you choose the one that suits your car?
Currently, my old father’s Outlander is using TEI’s P60NS (front wheel) and P40S-R (rear wheel). I have also specially evaluated (Tei rear integrated electronic handbrake caliper TEI P4explore), plus the store There are many installation cases. TEI is a brand with fast delivery and prompt after-sales service. With the correct choice of model and standard installation, it is a good choice for entry-level modifications. There are a total of 14 models of
. It is difficult to distinguish the characteristics from the name alone. Even our colleagues cannot distinguish clearly without talking to them carefully.
When choosing brakes, you generally need to consider car model adaptation, wheel hub adaptation, and the number and area of pistons .
I will continue to share it by dividing it into three categories: current mainstream models, flagship models, and dedicated and rear brake models.
There are two tips for changing the brakes. 1. The number of pistons is small, so change more. 2. When the piston areas are the same. The four-piston feels direct, while the six-piston is linear and unobtrusive. Detailed explanation of
mainstream models:
interpretation: Both models are suitable for B-class and below models, such as Civic , Golf, Focus and other compact models. P40NS+ will be more sporty. P40S is an old model, so I won’t recommend it.
Interpretation: P60NS is suitable for mid-level models or medium-sized SUVs, such as Mercedes-Benz , BMW 5, etc.
P60ES is suitable for platform models with weak master cylinders such as BMW F chassis and Volkswagen PQ35 (not sure if it is accurate). The P60S is an old model and is not recommended.
The current mainstream 6-piston models in TEI are p60ns and P60es. Their prices are on average 500 to 1,000 yuan more expensive than four-piston models. They are also the two models that people are most likely to choose incorrectly.
In terms of appearance, P60Ns borrows the design of brembo V series, while P60ES has its own design elements, 6-piston split forging and progressive design!
Part 2: Choice of flagship model. The flagship model of
generally reflects the technical content of the brand and is the top brand in the product.
Interpretation: They are all forged in one piece. The S60's external oil seal has better dust-proof effect, but the resistance is also greater, because although the piston area is smaller than that of the S60EX, the foot feel will be more comfortable, while the S60EX will be more sporty.
Both models are suitable for heavy-duty SUVs and high horsepower, and pay more attention to the braking force in the middle and rear sections.
Interpretation: S40 is a larger size wheel, 18 inches or more, and can be compatible with up to 380 discs. The P40EXPLOR is the latest launch of the rear electronic integrated handbrake. The piston area also takes into account most models. I also have a video of the rear integrated electronic handbrake, and you can browse the brake review collection.
Part 3: What I’m going to talk about next is my favorite model, P40 SUPER.
Among the many models, I think the most high-quality one is TEI’s P40SUPER.
Friends who know it can see at a glance the prototype that this caliper imitates! right! He is a competitive caliper of Project U with a very niche reputation but very few examples!
4 disc brake pad! Steel piston! Race oil drain! Hard oxidized exterior surface!
NICE is in line with my taste... Well, I have been talking about advertising for so long, so I have to pay advertising fees, and this is the one above.
This model of caliper is only suitable for 17 to 18 inches.
G series:
G40, dedicated to Honda , also suitable for Fit 3rd and 4th generations.
G60, dedicated to BMW , also suitable for models with weak master cylinder, 6 pistons.
G41, tank 300 model only. These special models
will not be explained in detail.
TEI has been rapidly updating and iterating this year, and we have seen the transformation of an old company. It also adds a strong touch to the competition among the domestic brake industry.
The domestic brake industry still needs established brake companies like this to set a good example and provide high-quality products and after-sales services, so that emerging brake companies have something to learn from and imitate.Only in this way can it benefit the riders.
Innovation is vitality, and product quality is the core. After all, the market ultimately lies with the riders.
Of course, if you still want to hear Brother Lei explain the model analysis of other brands, you are also welcome to leave a message in the comment area! Share more real feelings and useful information! Just in balance, I am Brother Lei! goodbye!
