Im ordering Godspeed discs with Ferodo DS2500 pads, i said i wouldn't spend that much on pads but they seem the best option. Will be changing the brake fluid as well but not sure if to change the brake hoses as well so its all new and fresh

Godspeed discs arrived today, still deciding on what pads to go for but im swaying towards DS2500's

Very nice mate.

DS2500's are decent, take a little longer than oem to warm up but great when they do.

So how was the "next" day delivery? lol. The DS2500 are good pads I found Bill @ B5 was the cheapest. Cars coming along nicely.

 

[muttly]

just been lookin through this thread really luving the car.. can you tell me which bolts you used need to do this on my lcr

thanks
matt

Once again iv been working on the engine bay. Decided to replace some of the bolts with countersunk ones and washers (which are way overpriced but worth it)
Managed to snap one of the bolts as well, so will need to drill it out at some point

Before:

More pics of the bay. Re arranged the catch tank hoses as well as it was all over the place.

In the middle of refurbing the calipers as well but is taking longer than i thought

Not cheap but worth it

Great front set up your going for there mate,looking good!

 

[Richy Cupra]

Discs, pads and fluid change were done today, I have been taking it nice and steady so far to bed them in a bit, probably do this for another few days then I will see if its money well spent Happy on how they look though.

Might get my wheels properly refurbed and new tyres ordered next week as my tyres have seen better days

 

[t0m]

Brakes looking meaty behind the wheel there mate

I've go a set of wheels that would go nice... haha!

Much better than the old one that's for sure When I saw your discs I had to change mine lol

As much as I love your LCR wheels Tom I couldn't have 2 sets of them, would be too weird

 

[t0m]

Haha was only joking anyway mate

Hope you get on well with the new brake setup, let us know how they do.
