Public transport during the week, Zed whenever i want, mrs tigra when i cant be bothered to walk 3 roads to the garage to get the zed out

Use a small flat head screwdriver to undo the little black plastic clips holding the cables in place, then unbolt the 8 bolts. easy peasy lemon sherbert. lol

I got my HEL braided lines for £65 delivered from HEL themselves, can get you a set if you like?

For everyone moaning about the brembo lol... Tada: Also cleaned up the rear arches whilst taking the brakes off came up like new!: Not bad for 10 years old!

Yeah they guy who im giving it to said he going to try helicoil it! cheers!

!

Right so after being a total cockend. I removed the passenger side piece of cake, as some of you know i'm currently changing my brakes. Well so i start the drivers side, stuggle a bit with the brake line, but after a bit of aircraft strength wd40 stuff, it came off, so i take the top bolt off, thats fine, bottom one the linkage arm is in the way, so i get the spanner on it, not taking note as to which way i was turning it, it was a little stiff, so i call dad over (big lad) and say dad kick this lol... dad sure enough kicks it good and boom, off snaps the head. was tightening it not loosening it. rooky mistake lol. was so pi**ed off as i can happily turbo a honda, but cant take a friggin bolt off a caliper!!!!!! Grrrrr Anyway, its fine, take a breath, look at the situation... just needs drilling out its fine. Anyway, crack on drilling it, notice the last guy we lent the drill bits too has demolished them. so its taking ages to do, dad being pi**ed off that someones ruined his drill bits starts wiggling the drill all over the shot, not realising he's now gone out the thread lol... garage next door owner turns up, he's got some new drill bits, sweeet, gives it to dad, wooosh, its through in no time... hold it up.. its gone through at like a 15 degree angle lol, now the hole is about 2mm bigger and at a dodgy angle, no idea how to fix that although i have a friend taking it away for me tonight to look at it.. So in the mean time, sorry for the comedy story.. but i may need a rear caliper very soon. Anyone got one lol? cheap as poss i'll know by tomorrow if i need it 100% Or does anyone know someone who could possibly ally weld it and re drill and tap? Thanks in advance.. doh.

I'll take you out in mine, you pay the fuel, that way your not saving haha

done the other front last night, forgot my camera so cant upload the pics lol, starting the backs tonight!

including a Lamborghini! oh no what will he do!! lol

lol, he's a cool guy too, has an awesome collection of cars in the garage!

I'd say at least 3-4 hours labour time?

Not this guy lol: This guy:

On the topic of celebrities i see Billy Murray almost everyday as he owns my garage estate lol, might know your mate Will as they both used to work at the club in eastenders lol

Im only 24, and i got mine from admiral, done multicar with my mrs car and got it for £548! theres a couple people on here who are 18-19!

I like it! i'd have it as a track weapon only though.

I've wondered about this myself. Would VHT lacquer be needed? Does such a thing exist? I've lacquered normal paint on an engine cover before and it was fine.

that's what i'm doing lol.. i said i have the brembo decals to go on will laquer over once on

And just like the clutch the old owmer said yeah.. Theres plenty of life left in them... knob.

Haha i think the guys on fb are just messing around at least thats how im reading it lol. Yeah ill stick this side decal on tonight and get a pic for you all rest will be done gradually over the week!

revs a lot quicker! but downside is its really chatty, anything under 2.5k revs is really rattly

as you can see in the first pic of the new disc, i realized the rotation was wrong so swapped it!

Managed to complete one side almost last night! Wow, how i was stopping i dont know haha, i fail to see much where the pad was actually touching the disc on the inside! Anyway heres some pics, Yes i've already been told i've sinned by painting over the Brembo, but dont cry just yet, i have new white stickers to go on, i'm still yet to bleed it all so its just chucked together for now anyway old disc: new disc: braided lines fitted, old one attached as i left it overnight, didnt want anything getting in the pipe: caliper painted: prepped car with dads Etype hiding in the garage opposite mine!: assembled: done:
