Guest Enzo Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 some really choice parts there!where did you get your ap racing brake kit from ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 believe those came off Chu's car, i wouldv loved em for mine, but im silly and would only get brembo/ap if i could get em for the rear and they matched Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thunderpants Posted January 2, 2009 Author Share Posted January 2, 2009 i have plans that involve a custom ap racing 2 pot caliper setup for the rear with ap bias controller.... they match too. yes the parts mostly came from mc chu it was to hard to refuse. car had a funny knocking sound for 3 days. thought it was the front right strut so with mc chu i wasnt very happy at all. also the brake disc was warped so didnt fit kind off so was further annoyed. to cut a long story short got the discs skimmed fitted em and all was awesome. around the same time i sourced the knocking sound. the drivers side engine mount bolt had worked itself loose and the engine was able to move. fixed that straight away. knocking noise went away. expensive repair trip to tein averted to say i was happy was an understatement!!! the car now brakes like theres no tomorrow and handles really really well. just a few more bits to do and the handling will be completley sorted. going to concentrate on interior safety now and get that sorted. One more thing what size of samco bends do i need to fit my hks filter facing air in bumper any help guys......then i can get rid of efi pipe.WOULD LIKE TO OFFER A VERY PUBLIC APOLOGY TO MC_CHU. PARTS ARE FANTASTIC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 They look class on there mate show them sexy brakes off You lucky fucker in my opinion that bonnet needs to be white now to compliment the wheels Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thunderpants Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 i know guys i completley agree. that is the plan, paint the bonnet cut and smooth the centre of the bumper out and get it painted as well. going to get all painting done at once. thinking of a full respray to tidy up the whole car.
