My New Brakes Updated (from old forum)
A few of you have been asking from the old forum what the news was on my new brakes that i posted about a while ago,
SO here is the latest pics from Caprisport.,
the Hubs have been modified now and the locating rings made,
the caliper brackets have also been made now,
when i was over caprisport the other day i had a quick preview of the new set-up, they do look mighty big now they are on a strut
hope to have these on the car very very soon,
all i can say is, they use a 315mm vented disk, and brembo 4 pot calipers.
if she don't stop with these on she never will

sorry progress has been slow,
but with me being busy, and with the car problems i have had this year ,
and with the guys at Caprisport being swamped in work, we have not progressed to far on my new conversion,
BUT things are coming together slowly, the calipers have been cleaned and checked over and are sound, and will soon be with me ready for painting,
i have the vented rear calipers here ready for painting too.

The capri is off to the guys at Caprisport in the morning to have the new brake package done, this is just in time for me to show it off at the capri day at the ace on saturday.
after the brakes is a strut brace to try and sort out, i doubt this will be done for the capri day,

A big thankyou goes out to Neil and co at caprisport,
we worked late into this evening doing the front brakes,
the rears will be done ready for the weekend.
Old brakes before removal:
New brakes waiting to be fitted:
New 315mm cross drilled and vented disc fitted, along with center hub locating ring:
Wheel and new alloy 4 pot Brembo calliper fitted:
and another side view: (they are 16" wheels)
All i can say is:
the 4 pots we took off were great and stopped the car great,
BUT these are fooking animals and stop you on a sixpence,
