Finally fitted the front brake upgrade, 4 pots on 312mm no spacers.

They work better than I remember the 320s working, these are the first that fit without spacers I've made.

Be fitting the rear 4 pots tomorrow if it stays dry.

I'm speaking with a brake disc manufacturer, but the only prototypes are on my car. It's the disc that's key.

I've got a Volvo tuning parts supplier interested also.

I'll see how they fair and they work really well, better than I thought and they only have cheap pads in from when I was mocking up.
