i have some brembo brakes which is a rovertech thing from a 406, they are 328mm iirc and have a bit more meat than the wilwoods. but yet to be teasted in anger i suppose, also they require special wheels etc.

Gotta be better than the single bucket caliper and discs. The updated smt7 piggy back unit arrived today from Drew so that's going on to start with and a chat with dv power about the heads is going to take place. Been sent the number of the engine guy from QED so will give him a shout about installing the pistons and liners. Prob get the whole bottom end balanced at the same time. May hav to request an outing in the new toy when I get the charger, that is if it's up and running :rofl: Paul |

i used to have notes on all diferent settings id tried and i had found a set up i liked but that doesnt mean it was the best it could be.....and besides i dare say the last owner fiddled anyway. Keep your eye on the front top arm bolts, i had one side come loose and it caused mot fail,, flippin wheel was wobbling !!...no probs just nipped it back up, but summat to check when your fettling. ...was drivers side. another thing on my to do list, was stiffen up the rarb to reduce roll a bit , car 13 told me how to do it, just by tack welding a rod down the bar....sounds a bit like guess work but he swore by it. Maybe summat to talk to Matt about.? Reason i never fitted rear adjustable arms on is because generally a good guide to camber is to have double the negative camber on the front compared to the rear, and with the rear being lowerred thats about what it was without dialling in anymore. Iirc the fronts were 3.4 degrees and the rears 1.6 degrees. edit , wonder how it will go on at pod what with 1st gear being somewhat sensitive for want of a better description, lol. |

Need to see what matt reckons as i havnt a driving style i suppose i would like it tight to turn in with little back end movement as possible. But am yet to test the car. I was thinking of getting some rear strut braces, but i assumed they would do a simular thing to the cage? Pod- No idea. I havnt actually tried to pull away in first in anger lol, I might copy what Ed did and launch in second he had great results.... |
