Just caught up on this thread. Very nice car, if only I had the cash to do half of these top quality mods and add ons. Great car. Looking forward to CC Seven more now roll on the 16th.

Great kit. No squeal, great visually and ticks all the boxes. In hind sight I should have spent more time trying to get the wheels balanced properly as the ones pictures above were 8J rims all round. Very tight but it is doable. Either that or you go down the route I've taken and go for the staggered setup 8.5j front and 8J rears to give you that little bit extra width in order for the weights to clear that bit better. All depends how good your local fitters are. I've found a good bunch of lads near me which if I knew about at the time I reckon I could have made the 8J work. Live and learn.
Great kit
Just these to add next on the rear with the mechanical handbrake

Jay what's the rear disc upgrade like over OEM, have you fitted the rear calipers yet is there much of an upgrade compared with just the discs?

Also do you retain the OEM rear calipers for the handbrake or does the new 4 pot caliper do braking and handbrake?

Still in progress at the moment as a mechanical handbrake is required... currently looking at Aston Martin handbrake calliper.

No oem calliper isn't any good for any part of the application. You need the 4 pot calliper and a separate handbrake calliper

Thanks for the update, is the rear disc on its own a worthwhile upgrade?

I'll be selling my AP rear discs soon as with the calliper conversion I'll need a thicker disc (28mm) to compensate the pistons in the calliper. It definitely looks better and probably does make a difference due to the increase in surface area

All clean and ready for tomorrow Jay ?

 

 

I wonder how many others have spent hours getting their car ready for 3 fest ?

 

Jay are you bringing your suitcase full of china cats playing "how much is that doggy in the window" ?   

[SK-RS3]

Had a callout tonight but gave it a quick wash before darkness hit to take off the surface sh*t.

See you all in the morning, safe driving
