have you got some braided lines with those discs mate? otherwise i'd say you probably wont feel alot of difference, as i did this on my n/a and was pretty dissapointed.

good updates tho.

yeah i have the dave burwash braided lines front and rear. dont get me wrong im not saying they feel bad, im not really a big braker anyway and i never really pushed the standard brakes so i cant really give a good comparison.

now the brakes are done, im moving on to the next phase which is suspension. ive got a bit of money saved for this but im not sure if i should buy it all now as i wont really benifit from it over the winter months what with bad weather.............so im thinking trd shortshifter, trd filter and maybe decat to keep me happy for a while.

nice update man, tho i aint keen on the cusco sticker on the splitter but thats just me, im a fussy git so ignore my ramblings!!

brake set up looks pretty damn impressive to me dude, the BMCS itself made a great difference for me. your winter month plans sound well smart too mate, im well happy with my shortshifter, they're a great piece of kit!

keep up the minted work Keirz bro!!!

thanks,

@ rob, i had to attend really because i know liam spent time arranging it. so plenty of pain killers and a scarf did the trick!

the service is being done by my cousin one day this week maybe and then its a case of finding a spare bit of time to borrow the ramps to fit the rear arb, or i might even wait till i have the coilovers then wack it all on at once as well as the anti lift.

thanks, i think im gonna fit the arb on friday if the weather is decent. gonna try and do it on my drive on the jacks. i should be able to mark it up at ride height, jack it up to drill the holes. then lower and bolt together at ride height. look do-able this way so will give it a go.

anti lift kit and anti roll bar are now fitted and i have got to say they seem to be worth the money and have improved the handaling a fair amount.

also my secret package arrived and i wasted no time in fitting it...............

im very suprised at the minamal lag, bumper is still not on as trimming it was a bit of a pain in the arse, plus my dremal exploded! so gotta run with no bumper for a while until i get time to sort it.

class mate, didnt even have to move the airbox at all.

all that is required is a bit of cutting of the slash guards and the bumper, which is a bit of a pain in the arse on the bumper but the kit is very good.

also there is pretty much no lag at all, a little bit of a pressure drop in boost but that can be just acounted for with a couple of extra turns on the hks actuator.

all in all a good bit of kit and i will get more pics when the bumper manages to fit back on.
