that Gunson Eezibleed setup looks very good, post back your thoughts on this, will have a look at a few reveiw vids i have seen on this as well.
just had the front discs done and pads the brake system was bleed at the front and Paige Brake fluid was used but one of them vacuum bleeders were also used and it did not just take the line fluid out , rears will be done when needed.

As a result of
170 bhp @ wheels
199 bhp @ flywheel
286 lbft torque
Clutch gave up last week so today we removed the Gearbox (Loads of fun) to find the friction plate was in good condition!
Just seperated from the middle- Oops (is this what they mean by a 2 piece clutch lol
after removing the clutch we found the DMF has twisted and Jammed
here you can see the Bolts are no longer in line with the holes
good side as gap should be
\
Bad side in flush with the starter ring
In the morning out come the Grinder!!!!

went through 3 of them. the second one was even sent off to be rebuilt with stronger pins etc, but only lasted 14 months. the 3rd box I got second hand then sold the car on as I'd had enough. Using 3 different dyno's my lowest torque reading was 365lbft and highest was 385lbft. Which is at the top end of what my setup can produce. I've been told the 6 speed aint that strong.
forth gear is becoming difficult to select - not everytime but some times.
Thinking of changing the box oil to try and cure this.
