I was going mesh up the nosecone later and paint it black to make it even less noticeable.

Been working on the car after it sat around for almost 5 months not being able to start it. After hours of trying to find it fault ended up being a fuse.

Fitted the D2s finally and the wilwood from the gsrv, brakes don't clear the Simmons so had to fit some 17s to clear them.

I thought the OM Simmons were 17 inch but obviously not!
It's interesting when I did the brake upgrade on the auto widey with slotted rotors and new QFM pads all round, it was a great upgrade. It stopped on a pinhead.
That's just normal street use...no track stuff.
However doing the same brake upgrade on the white GSR-V and using braided lines on top, I didn't get the same effect, just a modest better braking feel.
I suppose things like brake master and all calipers must be working at their peak level to get optimum braking.

Shame the OM's can't be on all corners :(

Are you having issues with the way the brakes feel or its braking ability. If its feel could be things like air in the system or even how far the brake rod sticks out.
