Prickle 22nd February 2012 15:04

What the part the holds the pads in? not a problem, il use the ones i currently have. Main thing i needed was the actual caliper as both are seized up pretty bad.

Cam 22nd February 2012 15:04

If it has it has, but fair play for the owner of replacing the standard shocks and back, springs and raising it back to standard height lol.

Wheel probs collapsed in due to something failing no doubt.. or bigger tyres i dont know lol. :homme:

Yup I can see the edge on the picture I quoted above! lol

Not sure why people are thinking yours are missing when the picture is mainly of the back of the arch...where they don't cover anyway! :homme:

Same, i assumed all they had was what you posted. :)

Next couple of weeks cat back supersprint centre section and rubbers for the backbox from Kamracing.

Handbrake didnt need adjusting like i thought it would of, it has like 3 clicks since changing the calipers.

The rear was up on axel stands to save a chew on. At first it was going smoothly and then when it came to taking the main brake pipe off the nut wouldnt budge. :D i was ahh for fuck sake moar moneys :( : but they decided to come loose and it was plain sailing from there.

Old calipers, as you can see these were pretty much like this all the time so you can imagine the stress on the car pulling whilst brakes are locked on, nightmare..


Old calipers





Old disc



On car



Excuse the wood under the Axel stands, the ground wasnt level. ;)

Next job on Monday (day off) is to paint the calipers Yellow and get the cam cover polished up and a wash/wax etc and a engine bay clean.


Nae danger though.
