u dont need to paint them alby, they are electroplated so they wont rust.

im gonna try put in an au diff to go along with the spool i have and get the au offset on the rear, all i need to do is measure how wide the au is from the top of the rear arches.


Fair enough, mine were from RBS, not sure if they were electroplated.

G'day Mate,
Have you fitted this brake kit yet?
Did you end up with 20 or 28mm hubs?
Im having real dramas getting the 28mm kit to work, the calipers just dont clear the stubs.
Tony has told me to "grind" some off the stub and caliper which i am refusing to do.
At this stage looks like i'll be sending the whole kit back.

Jeff

Well I am getting my set fitted this week or next but I have to buy my +35 offset wheels first - efgiar is getting his fitted as well

The 20mm Kits Fit Perfect

Will post pics up ;)

Has your Racebrakes Set up arrived yet and have you fitted it yet?

And looking over Greg302's history he has been talking about big brakes for over a year but with no purchase
