Any joy yet nick ? Edit - getting confused about what thread I'm posting on!!

Good luck Anyway ...... Brakes

Yes I gather you will but its just they won't last ...... And yes it looks like no issues if staying with standard set up or 9lb pulley .... After that people seem to be putting bigger impellers on and going boom ..... 420whp ..... Is around 480-500 fly I think

I recon you'll be running before me lol I'm not banking on it !! Goes in next Friday ..... Ill be happy to get it back within 2 weeks

Agree with the above

No .... I got got £700 .... Or was it £750 , can't remember ! Bought Adrian's / torqen akebono set up for ..... Can't exactly remember again!! About £1700 ... So cost me 1k to swop . ..... A bargain way to get a great set up .... I will add I'm only using them on a road car so can't comment on how they would hold up on track . I, like you wanted to get the suspension ( went with eibach arb, bilstein b6 shocks and tein springs) and brakes / tyres ( mpss 255/285) before I added more power ( stillen HR kit from torqen , being fitted next week) .......

Ha ha shows what I know !! The only thing I do know is when I test drove one a few years ago I didn't like it !!

All depends on what your paying for it I guess ? Can't ever see them being a collectible to be honest ......

I think it really does depend on what you want to spend. Yes you can spend 2.5k plus ..... I opted for the akebono set up from torqen , along with hawk pads / braided lines/ rb600 fluid and drilled/ slotted discs .... It's a revelation compared with the brembo set up ...... I think with more aggressive pad and 2pc discs this set up would be ample for your needs . You can also sell your brembos on , as I did so the whole set up cost me 1k ..... Bargain

They are a great little mod .... Nice one

I'm hoping jez can fab something up for mine Read lots of threads about the frozen boost and really want to try and fit it .

Epic ...... Just the one word ..... Epic !!

That's some nice brackets .... Looks like cnc machined Ali

So has he flipped the crash bar? Looks like the tow eye is at the top ..... Is that standard on a 70?

Gutted , hope you can get it back ASAP

I've had the yellow stuff and the Hawks are better imo Oh hold up ....... I also changed to 370 brakes when I went to the hawk pads .... Not a fair comparison really .

That e type looks to have some monster front brakes ! So smooth though .

I've got the hawks and I'm pretty impressed with them .... No noise , low dust . As said not quite as good as 2500 but easier to live with.

Very nice

Yes got the same fittings as above and also sent a set to litchfield for nicks car No not painted it black yet as I'm sort of toying with leaving it silver for the show factor not sure yet though !! Did jez get it fitted to doms car in the end?

I've just done some measuring on mine .... Should fit but will need to relocate air on cooler ( think that's what it is ) and also horns ....

Any news on how they are getting on with the frozen boost Nic?

Nice build thread you've got going on !! What's the deal with the race logic thing? How does it work and why is it better to have one than not?...........

I believe this doesn't help the situation ....... Wandering if mine will fit on my 50? Looks to be quite a bit of room on mine ........

Pretty sure he will need to trim the inner part of the bumper ..... Let's hope he gets it fitted as he needs to squeeze one in a 50 soon!!
