[Radleigh]

I'm thinking about the K-Sport brakes, anyone rate them?

 

[DannyGTI-R]

Quality wise they look very good the finish is great and great value for money. As for performance I will soon find out but I think Bob's had the most use out them so far, not sure what pads he is using I have Opt for DS2500 should be good enough for track and a bit of road use.

 

[Trondelond]

I'll be finishing picking it apart, and rebuilding the poor thing.

Waiting on 295mm APs to arrive, hoping they'll fit under the 15" TE37s.

Get some cold air feed made up, and install autometer/defi gauges and shiftlight.

And actually DRIVE it!
