Don't worry I'm still in the country... well just...

I am hoping they come this week as I'm away for another week starting this Friday. If they don't get here this week there will still be someone here with a list of your addresses so he can start sending them out.

Really sorry for the delay on these.

The supplier has tracked them for us and as far as they can tell they came into uk customs last monday and that where they have stayed. I have tried contacting someone from uk customs who can tell me whats going on but was told they will only speak to the sender. I have now emailed the supplier again to ask them to do this. I will also ring them when poss to make sure they do.

SwishOvBolton - Do you know Danny personally?

He is chairman of scoobycity a club with over 2600 registered users on our website, he has definately not run off with any money I can assure you that, only saw him last night Its just unfortunate that they are stuck at customs, and I can tell you he is really pissed at the time delays, but is keeping people informed

Just leave it be and hijack someone else's thread!

Finally some good news guys

A couple of VERY heavy boxes arrived today










I must tell you that these photo's really don't do any justice. The build quality and engineering is a work of art and the sheer size of them is monsterous

Everything is in there including the braided lines, instructions, the right pads and even 6 different stickers

Not all good news though.. obviously there are only two boxes instead of 10 but hopefully the rest wil follow shortly. I think its safe to say we're all desperate for them now so the fairest thing to do is send them out in the order that people had thier name down on the original list (I don't mind waiting till last though).

Secondly, one of the boxes was ripped and from what I worked out by comparing the two boxes a packet containing 4 bolts and a load of washers are missing. I phoned the supplier and no problem they are sending out a new pack via express airmail FOC.

I have tried four nut and bolt suppliers in my area without any luck as they are american 7/16 20tpi with a toothless shank so unless anyone can get hold of them I think it best we wait for the right ones.

Do you know how the pad contact area compares with the 4 pot Brembos?
The disc contact area looks a little narrow.

Nice looking setup though
