BoomhaueR's LCR210 murdered with flyeyes, vinyl and laminx

[BoomhaueR]

Thanks for your kind comments.

Millsy, I don't drive round Exeter very much usually. Only to and from work which is on the outskirts. I haven't seen you about. You will have to come to our next meet in Exeter.

And then I went for a play:

Thought I should update this. Recently I have put flyeyes kit on the rear light clusters and put black vinyl on both the badges to complete the dark stealth murdered look.

Also since warping the last two sets of discs I have gone with the EBC Ultimax discs hoping they will last a bit longer than 1000miles.

The original discs were cheap copies of oem and I warped them nearly 0.5mm! The second set I bought to replace these were EBC plain discs grooved with elliptical grooves. These didn't actually warp but they suffered from Disc Thickness Variation (DTV). This basically shows different sectors of the disc wearing quicker than others. Again within 1000miles I had quite a difference of 0.05mm between sectors. This is enough to cause significant steering vibration when braking. Conclusion is don't buy cheapo EBC discs.

Pics to follow.

Thanks. The wheels were done at South West Wheels in Marsh Barton, Exeter. They are very good, if a little expensive.

LCR is looking tough mate, sweet as. Bora looks nice. I see he is using his Student Loan effectively

 

[BoomhaueR]

Ha yes and thanks.

Well my ebc ultimax discs are still bedding in slowly but surely. I've done 500miles on them so far and most of the black stuff has worn off. There is still a little ring on the outside so another couple hundred miles and they should be ready for some abuse.
