they came with 2 piece ap racing discs but they are shot, so i got these s60r 330mm discs which with spacers will fit fine behind my volans. yum yum

also got a much thicker rear arb which should make a hell of a difference

The ARB does make a lot of improvement on the handling!

Enjoy

with 3sets pads, 2 pairs discs, hoses, and calipers all coming from different sources cost me 350 and the adapter/spacers have been made especially were done as a favour for me, so working out costs of the discs and pads, the calipers are about 50 each i guess. need repainting though, maybe why my mate sold em me cheap lol

Can't see why not, best thing to do is to quote your posts on the other forum so it copies any picture links then copy the text and paste it here under a new thread ;)
