Update for you guys.

I recently purchased a set of R32 front callipers and discs so set about rubbing the paint down and giving them a good spray up (in red of course) and im dead chuffed with how they came out





Stripped down and rubbed back





Primed





And the finished product





There not fitted yet as i had some issues with the wrong hoses being delivered but i have all the gear now so just waiting for a day off to get them fitted along with some fresh fluid.


I decided yesterday that the car was in dire need of a good clean so i donned a hoodie and braved the cold to get scrubbing.





And woke up this morning to be greeted with some lovely bead p0rn

Ye I wanna do a track day just to see what all the fuss is about. plus the standard brakes don't quite cut the mustard at stage 2. Iv experienced a lot of brake fade and it's pretty scary at times haha

 

[benj1989]

Yeah same mate. I wanna track mine next year.

Very nice mate. The brakes are awesome for oem stoppers eh.

 

[Benzy]

Thanks guys.

Yea considering there still slide callipers there awsum. I was considering doing down the 4 pot route but it would have been a lot more money. I'm over the moon with these

Looking good man, once I get my brakes fitted, we should do a photo shoot of our cars lol

 

[Benzy]

Haha good idea. U need to get a splitter and a black roof and I think they will be pretty much the same

No I didn't and I'm already wishing I had as there a little bit scuffed. I'm gonna touch them up with some Hammerite paint I think
