Specially if you do track days with your car... Is up to you Attachments $mugenbrakesxj4.jpg 128.4 KB · Views: 1,800 $mugenbrakesdemo8.jpg 117.6 KB · Views: 1,242

I am a fully qualified mechanical engineer with 8 years experience and fully qualified machinist. Easy job and imo very safe. Wheels often have more holes drilled into them?
