    Rocky Balboa

    Just watched ol rocky, i like a bit of retro, but it will probably get slated.
  3. Nice one its about what i thought, so if i have no luck in the next couple of days i will pm you.
  4. Thanks nic, is there any duty/vat to pay my end and whats the postage roughly..
  5. Nic, i am going to make a few calls tomorrow, failing that i dont mind waiting, as its off for mapping and paint for a few weeks. I want a pair, let me know your price and when available so i can get back to you, Thanks.
  6. Ready for balljoint leaving its nest..
  7. One of mine is ready so it could do with a pair....
  8. No they dont but its just another cosideration factor in what does and doesnt matter, I toatally understand weights and bias its not f1 and i am 100% they will do the job. I tryed to explain without sounding clever as some people are not engineers, theres lots i dont know but i have exellent help.
  9. I will dig them out n take some. I bought a load of 97 vectra touring car parts, including six front discs 4 back and a load of carbon bits.
  10. 19inch, but the fitted under 18s as well.
  11. Chris we both know they will work alot better that jap brakes, set up correctly. dont be mistaken i have built alot of cars from imps to skylines. I have been in game for 18yrs and wouldnt do anything i wasnt sure about.
  12. Hey jamie not took any yet, but the old turbos gave up ghost and i could hear them all the way down the exhaust, I thought the jap spec said uprated turbos obviously not..
  13. If you pm your email alan, i will take a couple of pics of mounts, give me a few days as i am putting a single turbo on my skyline. the discs are 320mm if you put the calipers over the discs, you will suss it out mate.

    CF Bonnets

    One from santa pod show.
  15. Yes alan, got all clearances equal either side of the caliper, as one hole lines up with the caliper, measured for the spacers and machined a block up to run across the back, held by lower original mounting hole and the one that lines up, the third hole for the bottom bolt is part of the block. Its not a hard job just double check all measurements. As for the mount i just made it a bit bigger than the ones i have bought in kits.
  16. Discs and pads are available to anyone , i just fell lucky on the calipers.
  17. They should be fine, plus its not slowing a driven wheel down which helps. If they fail it havin my old 375mm touring car brakes on.
  18. I tryed to get some uk supra brakes no one had any, but these calipers came up and had done 800 miles.
  19. calipers £200 ish, discs £145, mintex pads £50 ish..
  20. Ive got 3 tins of roses and a galaxy to eat before tomorrow, so i will be ill around 8pm.
  21. My jap brakes were worn out, so a couple of spacers and a mounting block and they fit at treat...
  22. Its manual and to be honest i thought it would be a lot more laggy than it is, it pulls nice from around 3500. Ive just fitted some tlf 800 injectors and i am gonna put some cams in this week, and thats it on this engine as ive bought a low mileage engine to fit pistons,rods,headwork etc. I missed a lot of meets last year so at least it will be quick and usable for now.
  23. After 2 hours of looking, RED. ( i think ). And the car looks awsome.
  24. Sorry been out! I fitted turbo before jap finale at pod, and ran it at 0.8 bar as it ran weak on boost. It ran purfick there n back. Just fitted injectors, i need some cams now. I dont know what power it will make, just got to map n dyno it. Then after that do it right.
