Made a start on this.  Will be a similar format to my 996TT kit review.

Got loads on so will try and smash this out tomorrow night  :happy2:

Soooooooooo, were 2 days and 17 posts into a review thread without a review in sight.   :grin:  At this rate we'll match Hurdys Golf R build thread which was about 17 pages long before he even got the car  :laugh:

I started it to commit to doing it. Not had chance to do much more this week with preparation at work for Armed Forces day on Saturday.

I believe that replacement discs are fairly pricey (being proper hardcore motorsport items), but will last for a decent amount of time - making them good value overall  :happy2:

I'd suggest that you contact Alex or DaveB directly - both are very busy guys and may not see this thread straight away when they visit the forum.

IMO for £1,500 (ish) this brake setup is a performance bargain  :happy2:
