They look very familiar... HiSpec don't do a drilled and grooved disk as standard, I had to request it for mine.

These my old ones Matt? They certainly look like them. I think Harry bought them from the person that bought my car and tore it to bits.

They do stop the car well don't they? :wink:

Good Job Matt,the project Is really coming together well mate love It :twisted: Can say having sat In the passengers seat 100 mph to 0 Is remarkable and Instant .Perfect straight line braking Instilling 100% confidence.Up to six brake tests were done from 120 mph down and were all consistent. Needed to re-align my eye balls! :mrgreen: :lol: They look fantastic. :D Look forward to seeing the Teins stance set up next.Breakfast and another photo-shoot. :thumleft:

That testing was done on a local airfield before anyone gives me a rollocking lol!! Better performance now I've degreased the discs too :thumleft: Yes Harry Teins are on and she's got her belly on the floor now 8)

Looks like someones removed the ABS fuse in the Frunk (hence why it wasn't working) hopefully with that back in that will reduce stopping times furthar and prolong the life of my tyres a smidge :lol:

Ha ha with my figure lol???

Skip, if you just fit a huge kit on the front it'll screw up the brake balance, unless you fit a brake bias adjuster, in which case your not using the kit to its full potential, Id go for a kit front and rear if poss, dont worry about the number of pots mate, its not going to make a huge difference :thumleft:
