I got mine at a absolute silly price! You honestly wouldn't believe I did tell Alyn when I ordered the PF pads and even he didn't believe me D

They look so much better and bigger in the flesh, they work very well...
Hoping to have underneath all powder coated etc...

I sold them mate, regretted it straight away but have a another set coming this weekend

I had them on my previous bug as well zany, had them screwed in and the fit was spot on... Don't want to stick them on, I'm at my mates in the morning if I can't get them screws out they're yours

Brake pads are squealing need to sort that after speaking with Ian @ Godspeed could be an easy fix and copper grease at the back of the pads... Should of just got an AP set up with Alyns discs and pad...

Million times better than the genome. It's an evil sound but not noisy.

Mine would do this on the carbon racing clutch conversion lol I killed it pretty quickly and replaced it with a more civil pink exeedy

That's both of us Ash, I too was a bit worried but turned out all good and they've landed and they're in top notch condition as per the pic

Can't get hold of a set of ce28 in 114 so the bbs will do for now I'll weigh one tomorrow out of curiosity as I can pick it up with ease...

The puzzles almost finished just two more rare items on the list

These are freshly done in gold mate so am thinking of keeping them like that... But then I do like the black.

S202 back box still on the wish list but thinking a turbo change 😊

Yep defo gold for that genuine jdm look but the black is more like a personal touch/taste is the turbo change in favour for the burble to come back Martin?

Good to see they arrived untouched ... these wheels are better than new because of the very good powderjob.

The factory paintjob on these wheels is only "okey"quality. Not to speak of the factory enkei's, their paintjob is cruel.

Keep that thread up to date, very pleased to see the changes on your car !

if you want to go black, i hope you do it with plastidip.
