The issue was with the mounting grommits for the mount on the hub!

Not my car

The gromit for one side is fine... but the other side is the wrong design (must have bee put together incorrectly) it just wont fit... so its just cable tied on and im keeping my eye on it!

The hoses are fine and do not leak so i was happy to just have them checked and re-bled!

Ah cool, was worried I may have ran into an issue when fitting mine!  They look greatm I hope to get mine painted tomorrow and fitted over the weekend.

Finally got around to fixing this... there has been an intermittant fault on the + paddle for a while now.

Yeah it could be!

Ive yet to get the alignment checked after getting the WALK kit on, so it could be that! Hopefully ill get chance to pop up to TTSRoadsport and get it sorted next week!

Happy new year too mate!

Well... it seems to have increased front end grip quite a bit, especially when giving it beans on corners. I've not had the alignment done yet so I'm sure that will make a big difference again!  :happy2:
