Nice one JC, must go alright for a UK now []

Sounds scarely like my mrs

As Grant says, much better filtration with the Apexi and maf friendly(er) too.

I'm with you Carl, try 4 pots with sh&gged discs and pads of unknown origin.[] Keeping my fingers crossed for a mega price.

Nothing underhand implied Imy, just meant that it may not be as obvious as it looks. Wouldn't mind popping along if I'm free to see where the type r comes in too.

Watch out guys, I smell a sting.

Crackin vid Grunt [Y] Any chance of converting our mapping session sorte? You know the bit I mean[]

Surely this is a photochop???? Did you get lost on the way to Dixons Spooks? Well done on popping your track cherry!

Says the tart with the bodykit.

Welcome, awesome name [Y]

No good posting up here Philip, better to do it on the other thread if you're interested..

Can't remember what thread it was but someone was interested in starting a group buy on AP 6 pots. Anyway, looks like someones saved you the bother..... http://bbs.scoobynet.com/ap-6pots-and-t536810.html No prices yet but might be idea to register your interest.

Very nice work Jon, and I see the colour even matches your car. Looks like it should be very effective and is that a cut out and meshed wedge I see in the background? Nice.

How much was the Brembro package going to work out including the spacers, new studs or new wheels and tyres? Don't forget you'll have your old 4 pots to sell and get some of the money back.

This is an extract from the last group buy in February, very cheap HI We do have offers on the AP caliper kits at the moment , we have reduced them by £100 per kit , if you get 5 or more I will discount them by £200 off the web prices , so the 335mm 6 pot kit will be £1200 and the 355mm kit £1300 , this includes DOT 5:1 fluid and delivery , can supply Goodrich braided hose kits front and rear at the same time for £60 These are total prices with nothing more to add Hope this helps Cheers Ian

If you find it don't forget to post up. Godspeed do a group buy price on AP 6 pots that I've still to see bettered but maybe you can. Think you need 5 people to get the lower price.

In the same situation myself St3ph3n so I know where you're coming from. Having spend a couple of quid on my car I've learned a very expensive lesson, if you're going to do something, do it once. I've bought mods for my car and as my spec grows I've out grown the new item and had to change it again and it's ended up costing me more than if I'd just got the best one in the first place. So, when I get my new brakes I'll be getting AP's. It'll save the enevitable upgrades, there's no clearance issues and most importantly my "tart" status will remain intact.

As you are effectively changing the offset of your wheels expect the car to handle different, the bigger the wheels the more pronounced it will be. Also, are you going to change the wheels studs for longer ones? If not for ever mm you push the wheels out there will be 1 mm less thread holding them on.

As above, it's easy peasy.

Wouldn't bother mate, heard they folded months ago.

Cal's first shart was a biggun!

As St3ph3n says if you intend to use the car as a weekend/track toy you'd be foolish not to go for the fastest, most hardcore version you can get i.e. and sti or ra. At the price you're looking at condition is far more important than mileage, most imports have have the mileage "converted" anyway. Also if you're going to keep it for several years don't get hung up on what it's going to be like to sell. If I were going to buy again I'd make sure I buy from an enthusiast and not just the cheapest one I could find. The owner is just as important as the car as I have found out to my expense on other cars. Ask obscure qustions and see if they can answer them rather than show you how loud the stereo is. Make a list of mods you would be doing for yourself and see if you can find a car that already has them, you'll save yourself a fortune. As you said it's a buyers ,arket so haggle hard and don't be afraid to walk away if you're not happy with the deal.

I heard you were looking at a turbo upgrade

Thats the only face he got isn't it? Well, its the only one I get to see.

I don't believe a word of it. I mean, who else would have him? Take care Chris and see you when you turn 32.
