Looking at the rate at which you've progressed through this thread, March is still quick! Are you planning to track it then?

I think we'll have it running by then alright, it just won't be road worthy. Suppose I'd better get the board soldered into your ECU soon

got an update about my brakes there nearly finished. when I bought the car I did a deal with martin for 4 pot brembo calliper's ,but as I've decided to up the power I decided to put ap 6 pots on and im using a 362mm disc up front with reyland custom bells and the reyland 325mm rear conversion using std calliper, I was trying to do a deal with martin to trade the brembos back in for aps but I couldn't get through to martin to get a price so I spoke to mark at mt motorsport to make brackets and supply new callipers and pads.so I sent him over a disc and bell to get working on.
big thanks to mark he's done a super job and I well pleased with what ive seen so far


callipers are the cp5575 in black




got a message of the finished product last night about 10.00pm and the bufty even engraved the brackets for me lol

 

[mcmurray]

Nice touch on the engraving.

Love the progress of this in such a short time. You don't hang about.

 

[Chris_702]

[FM155]
