@bbfb10 Ben, brakes look like they've had a solid job done on them :happy2: Why is it perhaps they look so much more like a cherry red and darker in the second pic, is it just the lighting?
I want a permanent cherry red for mine but finding a tin of high temp is easier talked about than painted :grin: :stupid:
bbfb10:
@rdfcpete I think its the lighting, lve not received them yet, those are just pics the guy sent me. Should receive them early next week so will post more pics then.
bbfb10:
All packed up and on my way to Midland VW to get Bilsteins, Eibach, Powerflex and Highline Clocks fitted.
bbfb10:
Refurbed TTRS Calipers arrived yesterday.
Anyone know how to tell what size disc the bracket is for?
Ben.

Another trip to Midland VW on Friday to have the injector on cylinder 4 changed.
Car had been running rough for a while, EML light would flash on occasionally. Went to a local Indy VW Specialist who scanned it and "diagnosed" a problem on cylinder 4 so promptly binned my nice red R8 coil pack, put in a crappy black one, turned off the fault light and charged me £80 and had my car for a day. Needless to say next time l took the car out the fault reappeared. Not a happy boy.
While l was at Midland VW getting my suspension changed l booked it in for a new injector the following week. Got it fitted and now the car drives like a dream.
Its been an expensive few weeks on the mods front, with buying Eibach springs, Bilstein shocks, Powerflex bushes, Highline clocks, a new injector AND TTRS calipers. I now need @DaveB@Vagbremtechnic brackets and some discs and pads to go with them. Still waiting to hear back from @vRSAlex about what kit he recommends. Once the brakes are sorted, its time for an exhaust.
