    Upgrade to Espace (2 Pot) Calipers

    Re: Upgrade to Espace (2 Pot) Calipers -> Wich discs ? Well for the ones who don't visit the track on a regular basis this is a real interesting (and extremely cheap) upgrade.

    Vmaxx/FK Coilovers for a very good price !

    I assume not, its purely that i wanted to know what the support is going to be if one starts leaking for example and you NEED the support. That was the reason i had to start looking for a new set in the first place (Raceland front shock started leaking ...... :mad:). Check the vmaxx website...

    Braided lines -> are copper washers needed ?

    Got some nice brake lines from ebay. But they supplied 2 copper washers wich i think are not needed on the 172/182. Checked the KTR ones and a few others but none are supplied with washers. Just wanted to check before i get to fitting them. This is the set i bought, washers are the ones below :

    Wll handbrake work with bleeded lines ?

    I am going to replace the brake lines with some new braided ones. The only thing i don't want to bother with is the bleeding part and let that be done by my local garage wich is 300-400 meters away. My plan was to go walking speed to the garage with the handbrake there if needed. But in order...

    Well i made a clip with sound, but to be honest this doesn't do the intake justice. I'm going to make a new one tommorow from the outside, that should make a hell of a difference :D
