A big thankyou goes out to Neil and co at caprisport,
we worked late into this evening doing the front brakes,
the rears will be done ready for the weekend.
Old brakes before removal:
New brakes waiting to be fitted:
New 315mm cross drilled and vented disc fitted, along with center hub locating ring:
Wheel and new alloy 4 pot Brembo calliper fitted:
and another side view: (they are 16" wheels)
All i can say is:
the 4 pots we took off were great and stopped the car great,
BUT these are fooking animals and stop you on a sixpence,

Just posting to avoid having to start all over again.
Been drinking so ignore this if it makes no sense.
On the back of the work we did with Tony's car and the 315 kit, we are
sorting out a 300mm brembo package that fits in the Capri Brooklands 15" alloys and others I suspect as long as they are on the same type of hub.
For anyone that is looking at this - Brembo calipers are in a completely different league to the "me too" lumps of aluminium with holes in.
They are now OE fit on many cars driven by muppets that are not capeable of staying on the black bit. As a result, good calipers are finding their way onto that well known auction site at very sensible prices.
Why buy mickey Mouse stuff when the originals are half the money?
