That's not a bad price at all, are the end fittings swaged on to the pipes.

It looks a proper job.

Cheers guys
Im glad people agree! Im very chuffed indeed!

Not swaged no, usual teflon type fitting with the olive and clamp. Basically a flare in effect. Max pressure of 2000psi apparently... They'll get put through their paces before it hits the road for sure! The hoses that came with the AP kit were the same

looks lovely - I've got similar look line on the upgrade hydraulics, though not sure it is that high pressure rated - but it might be.

those rears look interesting - i presume you spent a long time researching what to do with the rears, and why did you pick the wilwoods rather than something else? if i may ask.

Nathan with the blue supercharged ZS has them on his motor, the kits for an Integra so i'm presuming they will bolt straight on, which is exactly what i want but will certainly let you guys know if they do/dont lol Only Wilwoods for the sheer ease of (hopefully) just bolting them on, no brackets or fine measurements. Plus the price is reasonable when compared to Brembo or AP etc etc..

I got mine ordered direct from Wilwood through a company in Kent called Rally Design

cool thanks -Hope they do bolt straight on then!

I am not sure that I would need quite such a large disk on the rear myself - but you are right price is not too bad all inclusive!

Do you mind telling me where you got this made (and if it's not too rude) how much.

No worries atall mate, a company called zero exhausts in Ashord.
