Glosphil Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 Yeah do you do on site visits? lol, I might have to leave it till I get to visit you if I cant get it off. As you know, I wanted you to do all this, but time is difficult and I've got it all sat here so might as well have a go Your pads seems much better, even though it had performance pads on it already, yours are better. I do also need a EGT sensor put in my manifold, a full service and general check over though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovervi Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 good job mate, Where did you get your discs and pads from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glosphil Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 Got the discs direct from Toyota (Steve Manley) and the pads from Chris Wilson. Excellent Pads they seem to brake much better now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovervi Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 how much roughly if you dont mind me asking for the lot, thinking of doing the fronts and backs to go with my fluid change and braided lines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glosphil Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 Hmmm no your asking. I got the disks with new black mats from Steve Manley, think about 180 ? thats rear discs and black mats. Dont know the breakdown. CW Pads for front and back were about 140 I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
