Well still no got my turbo yet as the guy it was sent to from my engine builder decided to do any work to it at all in 3 months.....absolute raging to say the least,
So to keep myself sane I've been ordering a few parts so I can still work on the car
Order list as follows
powerflex steering rack bushes
Powerflex inner arb bushes
Powerflex outer arb bushes
Brackets to fit brembo brake calipers from www.spead.co.uk
300mm scenic discs HC brembos
Mintex 1144 pads
Brembo rear pads
Ate super blue brake fluid
R26 injectors as been let down on 630's
Also picking my brembo calipers up on Wednesday so hopefully that'll keep my busy until I get the turbo back

Yeah going hybrid
Brakes were all ready on the list but poly bushes were just decided over the last week, thought might aswell do them now when I've got the chance... Wishbones will be done at a later date as I'll be going for cup wishbones I think

Thanks to g172 for suppling my discs, pads and brake fluid great service as always
No worries Wayne, happy to help out mate
Well got good news during the week Andy has managed to get someone else to hybrid the turbo and has posted it out, so here's hoping it's not to long until it's at my door
Finally got some work done tonight since the ph1 it's behaving for now..... Inner and outer arb bushes changed to powerflex ones steering rack bushes changed and brakes build up all and all a productive evening even if I drop a socket into the subframe

Brembos have been fitted
Fitment is close so gona get a set of spacers just to be safe
Also need a set of 197 goodridge brakelines as the Clio ones are to short

I assume your brackets have shims because the callipers have been machined to fit 280mm discs?
Where did you get them from? I am seriously considering going up to 300mm too.

Mines haven't been machined mate
The brackets came like that with the shim, SPEAD get the main bracket made for the 280mm conversion then give you the 5mm shim
Got them off jack Kemps dads company SPEAD.co.uk
Magic - I had a suspicion they would be from jack!
Cheers mate
(my lines are HEL ones - if that helps)
I'm gona get goodridge ones I hate banjo bolts lol
Brakes look awesome btw
Thank lad I'm loving all the silver tbh
Haha the willys wheels are different likes
Cheers mate...it'll all come together in the end then it's
Well things are looking forward a little bit, getting a turbo next week most likely standard as Andy as been messed about with the one getting hybrid, so the car will be built but power will be held back until the hybrid is ready but at this stage I'll take that as Andy has offered to fit the hybrid for nothing once it is ready
Also been and picked these up today there nothin special but it's a start for track and at £100 couldn't really say no
Picking mounts up next week and I'll get a second harness from somewhere

Nice one Wayne :clap:.
I was looking at your brakes a couple of nights ago when I was up the unit with Stu, I wish you had the smaller disc set up so I could of tried some of my 15's over them.
What was the problem with the hybrid ? Ive only ever used TT and CR turbos and been a week at the most even for a custom hybrid.

Yeah I didn't want the hassle of having the calipers machined
They've been waiting on 360 degree bearings for about 3 weeks I'm totally pissed off
Can't remember who Andy was using

Well finally it has appeared pity it's only the standard one tho
Just waiting on the return fitting which Andy forgot to put in the box the I can start to rebuild the car
Also could wait to find another harness soon when and bought myself 2 brand new 5 points
