Without good tyres on the rear i just ran to deep on corners and struggles to hit apex's. The second hand 15's did smoke good though :wink:

Im not happy with the way the car looks on track...... maybe not low enough ? or a front lip needed......

I need a decent set of spare wheels for the rear the stock ones look like poo

The hydraulic hand brake turned out to be a nightmare ! well just bleeding the thing

Because i mounted the slave UPSIDE DOWN in the tunnel under the car ! It had an air bubble in it that would not come out no matter how much i bled the system! I ended up unbolting the slave with the lines still attached and twisting it around until it was up the right way and then bleeding it ! That was really annoying because i was a smarty pants and mounted it in such a hard to get to spot

The lines are really easy to bend.....and didn't need to pay someone to pre bend them for me

I actually needed to shorten them so i used a brake line flaring tool to do the job.

Below shows where i intend to "T" into the rear brake line. The slave has a valve in it so it just runs inline....

Below shows the lines going into the slave....more so how tight the space is there.... and close to my exhaust. high temps= brake fade.....installs heat shield !

This is how the leaver ended up looking .....ditched the ugly bolt :roll:

The oem cover fits over it so mister po po dosn't bust my chops about it.

I also removed this piece of useless junk! The clutch line that goes over behind the engine and then back again to the clutch slave ! I just re-bent the remaining line to have just a straight metal only line from the top to the slave on the box= better pedal feel and simpler :idea:

Sportmax 002's 16x8 +0 after a trial fit it turns out my current wheels are -4 !!! not +4 like everyone seems to think...... the 4 mm extra clearance was obvious when i trial fitted the 002's...... Fitted pic's after "DRIFT ATTACK"
