Im being a little lazy and cant be arsed to re write my project thread of .net..... Its a bit crap any way
Any way i bought it a unrecorded damaged 6 in march looked like this;-
So i fitted subframe, brake hose's, struts, drop links, track rod ends, ball joints, lower arms,drivers side drive shaft, lower engine mount and a wheel but bassically everything front suspension wise
Mot'd tax'd it
i then lowered 60mm all the way round on anthratic grey cyclones (no pictures of this) with my magnex 3 inch cat back system, de cat pipe, GE quick shift, phase 3 spoiler, clear indicators and adjustable gear link thingys off my old xsi
then my missus brought me team dynamics pro race 1.2 brembos
Got bored of the cheap budget shite the wheels came so fitted 4x toyo t1r
i then got board of the red wing and painted it matt black, Painted brakes up red and cleaned up the mess of the engine bay (ish)
Then i got round to buyin a bumper and it looks like this
Sorry its long winded and will have bad spelling but i tried lol. Any thoughts or opinons welcome.....
It has front fogs fitted now brand new valeo ones..... i paid £370 for the car damaged it now owes me £1870 some say i wasted my money but i love it!!!! it wants nothing drives like brand new and i love it alot lol..... although i was going to break it around a month ago lol
If any one has a cossack drivers wing for sale let me no

Dude.. I saw the first pic and thought "aye, that;s quite nice actually, fair play" and then scrolled down and proceeded to do this.
Looks tidy now but was NOT expecting that crash damage pic!

Do your brembos squeel?
If so what are you doing for them not to squeel, what discs are you using?

Eer one sequels the passenger one but the drivers don't??? 288Mm discs gonna get some sticky Teflon and cut it to size forage pads my mate tom done this works a treat.
They are good brakes tho my mate was towing me down a rather step hill when the crank sensor was playing up and I was able to stop his xantia estate diesel with ease with no servo assistance !!

Im not gunna lie............... mine do seem to make people wince and sometimes dash for cover at traffic lights or built up areas, with the occasional tear from small children and puppys. However, I would'nt change them back to the over rated SHITE gti calipers that fade no matter to what disc's and pads you use. (Cough cough). The brembo's make the travel in the pedal pefect as well taking constant abuse on a regular basis. Were as i find the Gti calipers easy to fade.
BEFOR EVERY ONE TELLS ME ANYTHING ETC.......Yes ive got new brake fluid and hose's etc there just shite calipers i had them on 3 diffrent 306's and had the same issues with all of them
The sticky teflon he uses works really well for the £5 it costs!!! im just to lazy to get it atm.

OK, Ill buy G88s then as i dont think I could cope with the squeel.
Im glad you agree with me about standard 6 brakes, theyre not brilliant and are surprisingly easy to fade even with good pads discs and fluid.
Mine are going on next week.

Ill take you in our car this week when you collect engine if youd like dum dum??? then you can hear the squel.
I dont care about it really some times i just find it funny peoples faces. With the windows up and radio on you dont even hear it.
I have said this about gti brakes on other forums in the past.... They lack the feel of what i would say are propa brakes???

I've found GTI brakes stop well but lack any real pedal feel or "bite". I had mine with no ABS and they just felt a bit half arsed, albeit braking well. I found the mum in law's Seicento Sporting's brakes much more responsive and snappy but all down to personal preference I guess.
