Harsh and cutting :p

Since id not have driven it over winter im changing the cams, clutch, wheels, tyres and brakes and getting it mapped in one hit instead of once without and then once with cams :)

I'd have to have a look at mine, but I don't think my Brembos are quite 14". Alloys are CE28n, so they might be worth looking at ?

Im not 100% sure on whih to go for yet, 13.58" or 14" so iv asked this based on the 14"

Alternatively what about the Volk TE37's like Joe had on his car, they'll clear a big brake setup.
