If I swap to a Brembo, I can get the pads to for those.

Im seriously considering adding Brembos and 2 piece discs so potentially looking for a new pad. The W5 had caught my eye too but they’re still a high metallic compound so will be sparking up at low temps which will eat my wheels/paint on the street. Glad to hear you’re getting on with them...

Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Anyone? . Anyone…?

Doing a lovely job on this Jon 😎👍🏼

As above. EBC don’t exactly have the best rep when it comes to pads but these seem to be a totally different ball game and totally different to anything EBC have done before. Anyone have any feedback on them yet and how they compare to the competition? I’m running Pagid RS29 and want more...

If you’ve found Makita kit that fits your budget, go for it. Solid brand and great tools.

So after all that which sounds like a massive pain in the balls. How does it feel? I appreciate with a turbo setup you have even greater packaging constraints. However would a PAS cooler not have been an option?

Got a strap on set. Had them donkeys years. Bloody brilliant things.

Probably didn’t even need tools to get a mini to that state of undress. 😅

Called a Rapfix 2 by Works Bell in Japan.

Only just seen this, yes its in my project thread for the chap who remade my VIN tags and yes theyre are perfect and 100% accurate to the OEM items including the ghosted watermarks.

So when I posted last week about the loose Milwaukee batteries it was just a genuine observation. Nothing else wrong with it that I could see. i had no idea it was actually a “thing” lol. Never had any issues with the Snap On stuff. But then again, I’ve only used the 14.4v stuff and for it’s...

Basically their new Flexvolt system can deliver up to 54v on certain tools that can take advantage of the extra juice. Mainly the bigger stuff like chainsaws and big chop saws etc. The batteries fit and can be used on all their 18v XR products. So I have smaller standard sized batteries for...

Goodies delivery today, treated myself to a few other odds and ends too, some stuff is still on back order but at least the drill & driver arrived. 54v battery is an absolute weapon on its own, if it dropped on someone, it would likely kill em! 😅 Awaits the DeWalt hate. 😁

F'king YES!! :D

Ive gone for their 18v/54v Flexvolt Advance DCD999T drill and their impact driver plus a few batteries that i can swap around. I will be adding the Flexvolt SDS at some point too. Looking forward to trying it out when it arrives :)

I'm sure in use, they're the business, I've no reason to believe otherwise. Given the fact they were all new and sealed in the boxes, i was lucky to be allowed to take them out and have a look over, so i could only go on how they felt in my hand and looked to the eye.

Neither. I had another look and decided i didn't like them enough to justify a swap, so have ordered some new DeWalt kit instead. I so very nearly pulled the trigger on a heap of Milwaukee stuff this week but glad i took the time to go look and feel first. Nothing wrong with any of it, but...

More suspense than the 2021 F1 season, ;)

Well, i went to have another look at the red stuff today.... I've made a decision and ordered some stuff.

Wow, I thought you were just doing the underside Tom. This is going to be amazeballs.

I didnt know id slated it yet, 😅

It wasn’t the fact the new DeWalt stuff wasn’t as good as the Milwaukee. It was more of how much you got for your money buying red. It’s quite a bit cheaper.

@Touring_Rob No mate. It’s just for home DIY and house works. I do use my kit quite a bit but nothing like what an actual tradesperson would require.

See you’ve invested quite a bit in batteries there, are you using this all day to need 4x 3.0ah or did you just fancy it at the time of purchase?

Dropped into my local Screwfix today and the manager there was very helpful and let me look around a few bits of new Milwaukee kit including the M18 Fuel drill and impact driver i was eyeing up. As @jameswrx said, the battery is huge on it and felt really sloppy for a brand new item. It also...

Yeah after 8 years my DeWalt batteries in the drill especially are looser than they were when new, i guess its to be expected. However they still charge and work fine and theyre only the 3.0Ah jobbies. I dont have loads of kit as im just a home hero but as it stands im on a DeWalt 18v...

Thats the identical kit as im looking at without the OneKey functionality which unlocks a load of tool settings and tracking via an app.

My Dewalt kit is all 18V XR so im used to having the 18v battery. The Snap on stuff is the micro 14.4v stuff so its great for tight spaces. The 12v Milwaukee gear would be a downgrade to what i have right now so i think im after the more powerful drill.
