they are Ebc turbo groove with yellow stuff pads. hopefully they work as good as they look. Cheers Chris I'm hopefully aim for an early 2017 Iva. but work might have something to say about that. 🛫🛫🛫 Tut. You should have said. We do discs/pads/braided hoses as well for all makes and models. Could have done a deal if you were buying spacers

thanks Stewart. I've got your braided hoses to. I've had the brakes since the start of the build but it's good to know for future.

Had a productive few days on the car managed to get the brakes and clutch all bled. and dropped it on its wheels for the first. time it soon became aparent after it bottomed out on the chassis bolts that the coilovers were way too low. so having been on its wheels for all of ten minutes it was back up she went. but not on the axel stands this time. I treated myself to a new toy. Lifted the coilovers another 20mm and now the seem fine. this lift is worth its weight already. the days of laying on the floor are gone forever. I'm lucky enough to have a private Lane behind the garage. so out she went for the maiden voyage. think it's fair to say that was a success couple of thingspots I did notice was I need to add another mount onto the exhaust it's a bit rattley. With all the excitement overall we put her back to bed and started on the bulkhead panels. these fitted OK with a bit of fettling, but the transmission tunnel was no where close I've been dreading this job since the start. but with a bit of patience and a lot of cutting, we managed to sort it its not perfect but nothing a bit of edging trim won't fix. I have also made my final wiring tray. I am undecided at the moment wether to powder coat or wrap them. I'm thinking of using rivnuts to secure them to instead of rivets. just for ease of removal.
