They had stickers on to tell you which way to fit them.

Looking good buddy! how are you finding the paradas?

 

[Willie]

There set up in the most aggressive direction, perfect.
Bet there neck snappingly good.

 

[Mike R]

Very good had one small brown trouser moment at the ring but I think it was due to the rear bushes need replacing. I have only driven it in anger in the dry tho.

Not used them on a track day yet. But on the road once they are warm the pedal feel is a million times better.

Liking the build mate, good work

Small update did my first trackday with the new brakes and they were amazing I would really recommend these brakes.

I had 1 small problem the rear brake pads wore out completely even tho they weren't even half worn. So I have got hold of some octavia vrs calipers and orders some vrs rear discs and pads as a cheap rear brake upgrade.

Pics to follow soon

[rs-tuner]

Found another of some slow cars holding me up

 

[Willie]

Nice one Neil, I'm hoping to make Oulton park this year too at some point.

 

[rs-tuner]

It's a fantastic track very technical and twisty.

 

[rs-tuner]

I have decided to to do a cheep upgrade on the rear brakes.
So I have got hold of some octavia vrs rear calipers and then sand blasted them.
Here's what they looked like when they arrived.

And then after blasting them.

And here's a pic of the blast cabinet

And a pic of the compressor

It's nice to have a road compressor supplying a constant 1000 psi.

I've just stripped my OEM LCR ones down and resealed these, check out my Readers Rides thread for links where to buy seals from ETC.
A 1,000 PSI compressor you say
