Thanks for the suggestions guys. All appreciated and looked in to I'll reveal my 2-piece brake disc choices... Once I can find the ones I want The trick is finding matching discs which can accept the LCR bells... Ggrrr... I will be going 356 mm up front and 310 mm at the rear for definite. Part of the reason for going 2-piece is to give aesthetic detail so I'm not too keen on using Compbrake but that might be my only real option. ECS is definitely out. They won't budge on selling me the discs. The Forge discs are sexual but I can't source rears to match. This is frustrating work... But a bit fun
Doing some reading on R32OC, I managed to find a contact who could make some top quality caliper adapters which actually fit, unlike the mixed (poor) reviews for the Creation Motorsport's ones- Lee Morris - what a nice guy. He sold me one of his prototype sets of adapters which will allow use of either 334 mm or 356 mm for a very reasonable price. These are so hard to get hold of so I've struck gold on this one they should be here tomorrow.
I've now received everything else to do the caliper refurb... New dust and fluid seals, new Brembo SS bleed nipples and caps, Hel 57 cm VW to Porsche SS brake lines, transfers and Brembo LCF 600+ fluid.
I today tried to work out how I could DIY soda blast the paint off the calipers using my compressor and spray gun, but it didn't work as it was shown on the net. I can at this point either send them to the guy that did my strut braces, buy some paste stripper or sand them down, before painting them myself in 2k.
It's good to have a project again...
