Re: 300mm Brake Conversion Details

Right, im going to my Unit on friday and will make a point of taking my camera to get you guys some pictures of the brakes fitted

I Will soon be able to give a write up for 96 Spec ITR Conversion aswell

We did a 98 Spec ITR last week and its almost an identical process to the EK9 except the calipers do not require spacing

Info added to first post

Re: 300mm Brake Conversion Details

It would be nice if you could post a couple pics with the wheels on and off so we can see how the twin pots bolt up.

Re: 300mm Brake Conversion Details

where are you guys sourcing the calipers from? are they better than the legend twin pots? weight/piston size?
