You'll be drilling holes in your alloys next and running inner tubes !!

Why doesn't any body have wheels on their cars? Is there a high wheel theft rate where you live?

When did you put backyardcivic side skirts on?

I'm sure noise testing is supposed to be 1.5metres away and at something like 45° in an open environment

Same again, side exit is on the cards to free up the rear for diffuser. As long as its below track limits theres no dramas

Hes not finished yet, theres time.

The holes are for mechanical reinforcement. If the person welding them isn't that clued up with welding and doesn't get penetration into the square floor plate and the tube together there's risk of them breaking free of the welds. With the tube entering inside the sill and the tunnel it wont...

What sort of price for the rotors ?

You have to pay for quality I suppose

So who does the brackets for the Brembos? Brembo are the cheapest way of upgrading but with the negative of a bulky caliper, whilst still lighter than the srandard brakes they are heavier that the Wilwoods/Hi-spec/compbrake type setups

I'll look on godspeed now

I want all new, northloop doing role centre kit on the hubs then getting acid dipped and zinc'd. Anything that bolts to them will be new or refurbished.

Was the kit good quality though?

Compbrake kit look good as well

Out of interest how much was your setup? And where did he get it all from?

The hi-spec kit I like with the 2 piece rotors, kit is the same price as the willwood kit

Also been reading @pule333 build thread and ACS motorsport got him a kit with brembos, 2 piece bell and J hook disks and brackets. They had to take a bit of thickness out of the calipers but they managed to fit them under 15 inch laggeras
