Have you got some pics and details of the front brakes?

mmmm very strange, I never took a picture of the front breaks

This is what it looks like with the wheel on :) The breaks were done by Redzone, very good work and a reasonable drive in drive out price too. I belive the calipers are from a R32 with custom brackets, if oyu want to know more PM RZ

Nice work. Can you tell me how much the roll cage set you back? where you got it done? and how hard it was to get engineering on it to keep your car road registered?

The roll cage, seat and belt mounts were done by Eddy a friend of OldFarts

Cost $1900 and he had the car for 3 weeks. As he only builds them in the weekends you have to wait a while to get booked in but OMG the work is mad good!

Um engineering is on the todo very soon list, but Eddy put me on to the guy who certifies his works so cant forsea any problems

nope, this is a cheaper and better setup, 342mm R32 GTR brembo option discs, and some custom brackets mounting the R32 GTS-T 4 pot calipers.

i'll post some more pics of the brakes when i get a chance
