Sorry mate, but we've got 4 pot calipers with our 336mm setup. So close, yet so far.;)

Friday 2nd August 2013, 07:09
You got 330s mate haven't you? :)

Besides, I'm happy to rely on brakes designed to stop a 5t road weight than 2t from speed (and the calipers are bigger :))

1) Only the fronts are bigger, and only by 6mm.
2) Calipers on the R are much better, and more than make up for the paltry 6mm the discs lack.
3) Why would I need to know the size of the discs, unless I'm changing them?
4) I haven't been driving it for 2 years as a) we've only had it 18 months, and b) I've got my own car.

Anything remain unclear?:P

1. What colour are your injectors?

3. What is the cc of your engine?

You've not needed to change any of those and they're not a service part :) Yet you don't know the size of your wife's brake disks. Oh dear.

The C70 will be a B5234T3 btw ;)

But they're all on my car, why do I need to know my wifes cars brake disc size? Your logic is flawed.

Hi Martin.
Thanks for letting me know about this meet on the other thread, the 18th is looking like a NO (Horsey event that MissB hadn't put on the calendar!)

I'm free on the 17th though so have gladly put my name down for the Crooked Billet meet and BBQ at Graham and Anne's...it'll be great to see you guys there (it has been waaaaay to long).

I'd just like to say thankyou to all the guys who worked on my car and sold me new bits to make it work a little better than the frankly ££££e state it was in before you guys all had a go! I'm terrible with remembering real names let alone forum ones! So I'm just going to say a massive thanks to all of you who were there today, especially those dudes who got my 850 running better than it has done in MONTHS!

Seriously stoked to meet such a nice bunch of friendly people. Work allowing I will be a regular from here on out. Thanks dudes.
