thetrashcanman Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Those brakes look very nice dude, Thought about those hybrids that Pauls testing in TTC with a syvecs maybe? Instead of the single route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) Those brakes look very nice dude, Thought about those hybrids that Pauls testing in TTC with a syvecs maybe? Instead of the single route. Maybe. Depends if they are 5 million quid like I expect they might be! I'd also like to see some data on them first. They have potential for sure, but they need to be proven first, could be fantastic.

Parry_10 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Not a fan of the stock bonnet scoop Sir Logan…. sorry! Always thought they looked like an afterthought. Had a cheeky tesy-fit of the brakes today. I am pleased to report that they fit underneath the wheels.. yay! They do touch the wheel weights, but only just as you can see in the pic.. With some tactical relocation they should be fine. I want to strip them down and refurb with all new seals..etc before I fit them, but at least I know they go on now! Proper Brakes. I need extended ARP wheel studs if anyone has a set lying around? The bell is thicker than stock and I don't believe there is enough thread on the studs to be safe. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=177507&stc=1&d=1385231474 http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=177508&stc=1&d=1385231474 Very nice mate, are you upgrading to stainless pistons or do these come with stainless as standard? Will look the nuts with a fresh paint and bolts on the calipers and bells. Did you get rears as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a set of brand new rear Jag XJR Calipers that I will mount on the back with UK discs when I get the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
