Now....that looks to me just like a knock off adapter minus some pin nuts.

Hey Blair, I wasn`t sledging Rebel, I was just showing
him the respect he deserves as our fearless leader.

Grandad, I think I lose more with the calipers than what
I gain with the rotors (and if not, at least it will look ok)

Besides if I drop a few kgs off my sorry fat a$$, I can offset
the heavier rotors

Pete, the car is stripped for prep, priming & paint at the
moment. It`s booked for upholstery in March.

I can finally start to see light at the end of the tunnel.

Give me a ring on Saturday & I`ll make sure I`m home,
not much to see(its all in containers) but there`s plenty
of beers in the fridge.

(0412 61 5550)

Regards

Nick

Even if my Cobra was at home, there would be no driving to work for me. Local paper reckons we have had 1 metre of rain in the month of Fefruary!

Blair,

Cobra is at work and it is now persisting it down.

The Californian cover is doing its job - thankfully.

I hope the roads dry out by the end of the afternoon otherwise I will be sliding home sideways.

Back to the subject - big brakes don't help in the rain!!!!

At least the car was due a wash

That's not the Club Members, its the Riot Squad attending one of their meetings to squash any arguments.

WRX are subaru and they all look the same to me. There is even a station wagon with a "hot" motor / engine set up. Factory production clones... My mums' 79 and she's got one....a pensioners car ?

Each to there own Rob, but drive one and you'll see a Cobra will never match its handling.

The one I have, which is a little different can even hold its own with a SS V8as long here is a corner or too.

Willwood Dinolites ? do they have weather seals ? I have heard that they are race spec and that they don't have weather seals which inturn allow all sorts of muck to gather around the piston-to-bore cavity and cause premature wear.

No they don't. I have had them on for a few years and no problem. Each time you replace the pads, rebuild them.
