Same diameter though. A few people have the Brembos with ABS

Yeah have a look through the last 2-3 pages of my project thread. On the standard cup cylinder. If you want an equivalent braking effort from Wilwoods you need 300mm discs and more aggressive pads than you need with Brembos and 280mm discs. That made the choice for me quite an easy decision.

Yeah they're not a bad tyre, a little better than the R888 imo. But I'd go Dunlop, Michelin pilot sport cup first; although I haven't tried the pilot sports only read excellent reviews.

You can't compare the two...one is an ultra high performance road tyre MSA List 1A and the other is a road legal slick MSA List 1B. Try them both in the wet and then see what comes out on top. The AD08R is a great all rounder and it doesn't go off after plenty of abuse. Anyway for all the posts...

Should have said, I have the Brembos under 15" ET35 pro race 1.2. I went for the superior callipers (imo)

3mm spacer should be enough. I've got 10mm but I'll be replacing these with 3mm ones.

Impressed with my Yokohama AD08R so far, great in the dry and wet although a bit difficult to get heat into when wet. If you want more performance in the dry then DZ03G are very good, get the hard compound rather than the medium. What tyres were you overheating?

Cool car! That torque is impressive. What ecu are you running?

OEM/OEM+ all the way. Buy a tatty one to track, plenty of them around but not many honest low mileage/owner ones so look after it!

A custom made one, depending where you are located you might have some good exhaust places that will make one for around £300

Cool car, I'd love a 5 :D Did you ever find the carb unreliable? Will you be changing to a coilpack or are you keeping the dizzy?

Awesome thanks!

Rainsport 3 for the road, good tyre and too cheap not to fit them.

I used to run Federal RSR but found they needed too much camber to use them effectively. They are good all rounder though. I swapped to Yokohama AD08R and they are better again. They don't go off as quickly, offer more wet and dry grip and aren't as sensitive to camber. I've used more track...

@Adeyspec

Denso > NGK every time

Yeah they're not bedded in properly yet then. Although on the box it says no specific bedding in process is required, there definitely is!

Are they new? Mine were like that until I bedded them in with some track abuse

Reminds me of my 250lbft 800kg Fiesta :D

Leg end @NorthloopCup

Belated photos of the new daily. Gave it a wash before the rain came.

Halfords professional small car cover, they're great.

Will they cover the gearbox as its over what its rated too?

What torque is yours at with the 211lbft rated gearbox?

I'd take the ratings with a pinch of salt. Get an exhaust and sports cat then take it to rs tuning for a map.

It wasn't raw enough for me to replace my Ph1 but as a daily it's a great all rounder. Better than the new Fiesta ST as a daily that's for sure.

Have a look at the catcams website and compare the group n cam figures of the 172 and 197. As for the 197 cams, yes they offer a bit more overlap so if you run a twin scroll turbo setup you will see benefits Otherwise as Mark has said, run the 197 inlet (with 172 dephaser) with the 172 exhaust.

Quite an achievable number. Usually 8500-9000rpm

Its very positive, only issue is setting them up. Takes a while but once its set the shift feel great.

Can't say I've noticed anything. The only time i get side to side movement is in neutral as there no mechanism to centre it.
