Title: This Should keep me happy
Post by: lswed30 on December 03, 2008, 02:40:45 pm

Hello Chaps,

I've pretty much got my brake kit sorted now check these bad boys out. Just waiting for the calipers to get here and that should keep me ammused for a little while. Bet you I dont cook these ones up so fast lol.

360mm x 30mm thick!!!!!!!!!!
I was going to get the R32 kit as its not a bad price, but when I thought about it they didn't really jump out to me as being that great when I test drove one before I got the ed. They will probably fade after a few roundabouts with me driving anyway so I thought may as well go the whole hog and get a "proper" kit done.

Cant wait to do stopies everywhere but now its got me thinking about the rear brakes lol.


Its never ending!!!!!!!!!

I've got some 6 Pots coming along should be here anyday now.

I just hope I got the dims right for the caliper carriers!! I may need some spacers, I'm hoping I don't but I have a feeling they will be needed to clear the calipers.
