Nice little write up bud, looked a good day out. Sorry to hear the brakes were warped in the end. At least I don't have to go investigating further whether I had a wheel bearing or something on its way out. And nice to see the good dyno result with just my chip! 8)

Front lip looks great. Some Euro sides would match that nicely, maybe Robs parts emporium can help? :wink:

Still not 100% that it is warped discs. The front wheel was wobbling quite a bit on the dyno so could just be that but I can't feel it under normal driving just under braking. I've given the pads a clean up last night pics to follow tonight and the gearbox is going in now. So ill have another update later :)

Also the wheels where balanced when I put the tyres on, one of the wheels has a slight dint in it but not enough for them not to be able to balance it but I can't remember which corner it's on

Didn't have any vibration problems when I had it on the road though

It's only under the heavy heavy braking I was getting the wobble not at low speeds or under normal driving. My break pedal is also still really stiff. It's the drivers front that has the dent in it and was wobbling around.
Ill put it on the rear on Friday and see what happens

Stick tyres on the 15's and try them?

Would have thought they would have been better for track than the 17's?
