Nice mod :thumbsup:

It always pays if you are not sure to ask on forum for info or help with brakes there are plenty of us that would lend a hand

They need to be done right first time :)

Its no shame to ask someone, what may seem to be easy can turn to crap very quickly :(

Glad you got it sorted :)

thanks martin :)

the 4-pot are a lot better that the 2-pot that where on there can really feel the diffence i've added the discs and braided lines just waiting for a set of carbone lorraine RC5 pads to arrive bed it all in and should really help with the stopping. :D

the 2pot where bad started to fade on heavy braking and when they got hot 4pot should stop all that.
