[306GT30]

Well this weekend were going to do some work on the car again, weathers been s**t, and no longer a excuse to do nothing.

Since i still have a pair of Cayenne/Gallardo Brembo 6 pots laying around, the 17Z versions (that fit 17" wheels)
And i had a look at my friends @ VVT their timeattack car, a 300+ BHP diesel Ibiza on 17" Prorace 1.2 with the same insane huge calipers, i want that too, so im getting them fitted to the 306

The 17Z calipers are made for 325-345 brakediscs, since im using 330er from a 407 V6 i can use the calipers to their fullest.


Heres a pic of how big they are ( this is with a 332mm disc)

first 306 with Lamborghini 6 pots in the world i think

[vlj]

Want. Your updates make me question the point in my car, I love this car

[Ed Doe]

Want. Your updates make me question the point in my car, I love this car

^ This. Wish I had the time/money/insanity to do a build like this.



Well... I have the insanity, but neither of the former two!!


Surely this thing is gonna have both rear wheels in the air when you haul in on the anchors?!

[declantg]

If I pay fuel, please take me out in this I beg you

[ozonehostile]

6 pots!!! Your face is gonna fall off haha

[306GT30]

4 pots is for pussies
Here they are fitted on the racecar, 17" Prorace 1.2 (7.5X17 ET35 with 18mm spacer), ive got 7.5x17 ET15

[Alee83]

I need a tissue...

[chrisrallye]

i have got 6 pots under my 15's and they do stop you very well.

[Tom]

The calipers are as big as that mans head O:

[Tallguy_2]

What pad pattern are these, I have a brand new boxed set of Mintex 1166's here

They fit the gallardo, B7 RS4 etc if you're interested?

[306GT30]

Tallguy maybe interested, i was thinking about fitting DS3000 to them..
But what do you want for them?



On my A3 with 370mm RS brakes i was running Pagid Yellow

[Tallguy_2]

I paid £228 +vat from cams kill, make me an offer...



Look right?

I've always been a fan of Mintex personally, all the race cars we have had have always been supported by them

[padge]

wow, thats is all.

[Seid']

damn it. like like like.

i want some videos of that running

[306GT30]

I paid £228 +vat from cams kill, make me an offer...



Look right?

im not sure, but i think thats a pretty crazy price, since i only pay around 130 euros for a set of DS2500-3000 for these calipers, but thankyou anyways

Theyre not that big

[C.A.R.]

'not that big'

Either that's a size 4 trainer or I'm calling you a liar!

Can I have your challengers please? I'll let you know my address so you know where to post them

[306GT30]

Hahah

Challengers are sold and gone with their new owner......

[306GT30]

Well we did some trial fitting and sorting out the fuellines, and trying to figure the best position to route the compressorhousing of the turbo.

Decided to ditch the screamerpipe idea, almost ZERO space, and i think its nicer to hear the engine/turbo and exhaust then the screamerpipe when on boost (+ it saves a lot of work!!)
So were rerouting it in the downpipe.








Monday were sorting out the gauges and stuff... next week saturday its engine removal,get some small things welded.
And then were going to push the pedal and take some big leaps into the project... i want this thing on the road!
Bought a digital EGT gauge with alarm






We had a good look at how to route the ic piping, and things are pretty clear now, so when we fit the engine again, we can also sort the piping out.

[sam]

Screamer pipe out the wing or bonnet

[Ricky]

I'd be worried about tearing off all the suspension components when braking hard with them things! They are HUGE!

[Piggy]

yeah or tearing out the front end when accelerating!

[306GT30]

Well a beautifull Monday to fiddle around with the French meatball, Marvin joined me and since the temps are on the more christian side now its a lot nicer to do something.

Also decided today was a nice day to get some yellow paint , new Lamborghini decals and do some spraying, im in the middle of it, so maybe later on tonight some more pics



I forgot how big and light these f**kers are...

Comparison, 4 pots are for pussies



Some primer



Some coats of SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLOW





Tonight later on the decal and some clearcoats, if i find the time


Frontbumperinside needed some trimming to accomodate the IC, so it can come 1 or 2 cms to the front, so we can squeeze the mocal oilcooler between the ic and rad.



some pics of the modified thermostathousing




Intercooler brackets

---

2 x spa fans




Cars been standing way to long in the barn now, some strange green mushrooms are growing out of the enginebay


Poormans BOV vs Pimpdaddy$$



Marvin started with the mockup of the Ic piping,since the GT3071R is a big turbo we had to turn the housing and see what would be the best way to put it.
These things are timeconsuming ...









Saturday were removing the engine , mockup some things , get some things welded up and after that its time to fit the engine in its place and start installing things.

Deadline is end of may!

Tonight later on some more pics of the caliper,( i only had enough paint for one, so other one will be sprayed tomorrow)


Cheers!

[vlj]

Please just stop updating. Or at least don't put up pictures.. it's all too nice and shiny

[Toms306]

It's gonna be too nice to drive when you're done lol....don't wanna get all the new shiny stuff dirty!

[306GT30]

Hahaha thx but the car is really dirty as fcuk, previous owner did some Paris Dakar i think.... stupid sand everywhere!
