Included £7.00 Brembo stickers (front) and £4.00 (rears) - calipers were in a bad way and the lacquer had lifted and the paint below the surface was pitted/shot to hell and back (5 year old car with 48,000 miles).

Now looking much better:





Dropped car off at 0900hrs and all done, painted + fitted by 1700hrs (Dudley/Stourbridge).

 

Did you have new pistons and seals fitted?
Lovely job.....

 

No - these were done at a 45,000 mile service in February.

 

Morning all, these early morning feeds are a killer, but that's one of the perils of a newborn baby! Lol

 

Oh yes buddy, now you know why im on here at stupid o'clock lol......it gets better.....honest (Kain does every 4-5hours now)

 

I know what you are saying bud but you have a nice example there. Keep at it, cars like yours will go up in value imho (genuine sonic blue uk saloon classic)

Have you thought about an newage sti brake\caliper upgrade? I know its a quick (cheating) fix to your problem but you will be upgrading rather than fixing.........

Just a thought.....

 

Morning All, cant wait for the grandkids after holding Kain, brings back memories.

 

To be honest i haven't considered a newage upgrade seems like a good idea for the future.
Even though the classic gets on my nerves sometimes i dont think i could part with it.
I will cross my fingers and see what happens next........

 

Good point! Probably get a set of brembos for about £500ish dependent on condition of discs pads, also you will need either newage 17" sti wheels or a set of 18" to clear them though.

 

I know dude, that's the problem. I've got so used to getting loads of sleep as our 4 year old was in a good routine, now our new born has knocked us out of sync again! Lol

then had a phone call yesterday saying can i please come round today as he cannot get it working ;/ now it will cost them more for me to fit it properly than it would to have one of my systems that is garanteed for 2yrs!!! lol

many people i have met over the years say either,,,

I don't need one we never get burgled round here

I Have a dog!

I don't have anything worth steeling

ive already got one (that hasn't been serviced in ten years) Does it even work?

i'm in the house most of the time

all of the above i have fond over the years have been targets of crime

Scum bangs will break in take anythin that they can car boot, sell down the pub , or on ebay,

 

Can anybody help please.... In the second picture at the top of the caliper there is a clip (i asume to hold the pads in place)since my pads were changed mine are loose, and make an anoying rattling sound when i brake.. Any ideas, Can they loosen from age, can they be replaced?
nb. the garage assured me they are back in correctly.

Cheers all

 

Looks like an anti-rattle clip they can loose there tension over time.
Try Godspeed brakes on SN or type in godspeed brakes.co.uk...

 

Nice one.... Cheers Dirk

 

Happy to help...

 

that plate is to hold the pads in as the pins .the pads should never get loose unless there may be problem with the brake pistons returning back to far get them check out
