Thought I'd post a bit about how I spent my day and ask a question while I'm at it.
Obligatory picture.
..In preparation of my new alloy wheels
(which arrive tomorrow), I took it upon myself to remove the 18s, as well as fit new EBC disks (ultimax) and pads (redstuff) all round.After eventually getting the tubby on stands, I set about removing the wheels.
The previous owner so kindly left me without a locking wheel nut but I soldiered on with my "Irwin Bolt Grip Nut" set, a hammer and a 3/8"in drive 
Now here's where the fun starts.
.. I got the first brake caliper and disk off easily enough but straight away I noticed that the front disks were too thick! ](./images/smilies/eusa_wall.gif "Brick wall"){kind=small}
This is where I need some clarification for you guys... I have bought some EBC Ultimax 276mm diameter, 30mm thickness for the fronts and 280mm/22mm for the back. I always do my research prior to a purchase and as far as I'm aware - these should fit fine! 
Here's my theory: Somewhere along the line, a previous owner has fitted the Rev1 calipers and disks to match. What do we reckon?? EDIT: My fears are confirmed!Anyway, I spent a good portion of my day on and off wrestling with the damn things before realising it was all for naught
Oh well, at least I managed to remove the crumbling dust covers! And here I was hoping to be mobile by end of play tomorrow...
