New brakes wheels and bits

[adiclio16v]

Fitted some new bits too car today

New rims


New brakes 172 hubs discs and calipers and carbone Lorraine rc5+ pads there very very good and a proper worthwhile upgrade , the pads don't come with anti rattle clips I was going too fit the ones off my old pads but I couldn't be arsed after a few clunks too get them seated when I first set off there's been no clunking or squealing from em since



And finally fitted my 20 quid eBay oil catch tank baffled with a couple of stainless pan scrubbers

I hear the 172 brake upgrade is a good one.

The car is lovely, must go like bat shit! Your big problem must be traction. How does the gearbox manage the torque?

The Speedlines are nice too, get some 10/15mm rear spacers ;)

it goes very well - traction in the wet is fun!

I'm very impressed with the brakes I had hi-spec 4 pots on my last valver with ds2500's and I can't say there was a huge difference the hotter these get the better they work and i can't moan for what they cost reckon about 280 and the biggest expense was the pads

It goes very well it's the quickest car I've had, Northy was hanging on too the seat lol ;) traction is an issue needs some super sticky tyres I think and some hot Tarmac , the guy that mapped it tho said it puts the power down better than any fwd vag car he's done with similar power

Rear spacers are on the to-do list
