Clutch looks sweet

had a 3 puck one on my mini and it was like a switch, awful around town. 5 paddle looks interesting, have to let us know how you get on :)Upgrading to 4 pot callipers should offset the difference in brake disc size and will make life easier all round

where abouts are you adaptorman if I'm local?

reason i went for a 5 paddle not as ferce as a 3 paddle plate , havin to wait for some smaller 288mm discs so i can adapt these calipars to pipe them up, nr doncaster so not to far away

BAPP bolts in brighouse do threaded bar not sure if they do both ways threaded though. Would imagine Dixon Hall in Wakefield or similar will have it or be able to get it in

nice one pal... ill give them a buzz 2moz , but good if they can sort it , as i could just normal threded bar , but a pain to keep removing the bars to turn them , i was also looking at left hand tap and die ,

, time ive right right size maybe easyer just buying some done ,,,

well im runind 288 as the wilwoods just clear due to alloys
so went out testing , all i can say is why didnt i fit these first off , dosent have a problem locking the wheels , and ive also use a t in the rear brakes removed the conpansator valves ,and adjusted the servo up which helps loads
managed to get a couple of updates nothing great thow
first made adaptors and made sure everthing algines up on the calipars
