New Brake setup for the Beast...

Not done much with the Supra over the winter but finally got him out of hibernation and decided to increase the stopping power. I fitted a set of AP brakes on the front and powder coated/refurbished and refitted my UK 2 pots on the rear (Thanks to Chris Wilson for the Stainless Pistons, work a treat). Took around 2 ½ hours in total to fit the brakes on the four corners and bleed them up. I put some Ferodo DS2500 on the front and some new Endless SSS pads on the rear. I already had Braided lines all round.

 

Took it out for a blast to bed the brakes in and after following the procedure I went out for some fun. The new brakes are awesome and stopping from 100 leptons + is no longer an issue.

 

After not driving the car for a while I can't get over how fast it is, scared myself silly, can't beleive how hard I uesd to drive it...lol Must be an age thing! Think I may need a track day or something to get my confidence back...

 

Here’s a few pic’s of the new setup.
