Another update sports fans! Today I got the call to say my brake bells and rotors were ready for collection. Very pleased with how these have turned out!! These are a custom 295x28 setup and they're still lighter than the original 280's, so substantially lighter than the 300mm scenic discs...

No problem mate.

I'm not worried mate. I know a f**k ton of wrong un's. :wink:

Lol!

Oh ffs. Lol! I prefer jc5's to cambelts. You know where I am though mate. :up:

Lol!! I do have a new bar for the bushes now though. Bit more leverage!

I have the power to award points. Just you keep that in mind when recommending me for arb bushes! Flol!! Anything other than the powerflex black series arb bushes. 🙈

If the spacer has a chamfer on both sides of where it passes over the spigot, then yes they are fitted correctly. If not it needs swapping over so the chamfer is on the face of the disc. ^^^^in fact scrap that! Lol it's only applicable the way I've stated it on the rears.

Yeah give it a shot mate. Just make sure the pulley locking tool is tight and the cam locking tool isn't bent after you've tightened up the pulley nut/bolt.

This is 100% correct. The horseshoe is only there to set the cams in the correct position. It's the idiots that think they can loosen/tighten the cam pulley nut/shifter bolt that run into trouble and bend the tool.

I watched it on quiet first, hence my question initially about the volume. As you can see I turned up the volume a few minutes later - ya fucker!! Lol

ASW.

Flol

Brute!! Lol

What's up? You broke 1st?! Lol

It doesn't make any sense that it stops when you touch it though!!

Volume turned up louder and watched again - ouch at 3100!!

This is a 182 (on the left) manifold vs a 172 (on the right).

I'm assuming that the video isn't picking up the sound in its full on noise mode? Or is it as loud in the car as the video is showing? If it's the latter it's nowhere near as bad as I thought!

Very lucky there then mate!

That crack you hear was the cause of the damage to the cross brace I assume? Certainly sounded a harsh impact though!!

I love the little 'hoo hoo hoo' at the end! Proper lol moment and excellent save because that could've gone very wrong!

No it's just attention to detail. :up:

Not sure I'd go that far! Lol

Or drill it so it doesn't resonate inside the tube.

Engineer grade nylon would be a better option than the powerflex crap.

I wonder if you could replace the bearing in the linkage under the car with a nylon bush?

@bashracing can you do a video of the rattle so I can hear it for myself? You could dynamat the inside of the turret housing to potentially reduce the amplification effect.

Hacked it mate. There's only a couple of bits that needed some therapy to get it flat mate.

Well it was worth a try wasn't it!!
