How deep are your pockets Mart
So I'm trying to push big time to get the shell back rolling as we have a little MG Midget in for a restoration and my cars space is where it needs to be!
After the weekends push I was left needing to get the driveshafts/propshaft cleaned and painted plus painting the rear later newage brembos red to match up with the k-sport front brakes.
Pics say the rest

You ain't gonna drive this when it's done, it'll be like one of those polished RS Turbo's parked on 2 ramps with mirrors underneath so people can see your shiny bits

Not deep at all Ry
coming together nicely now wish I could do all this to my own car

Got a bit more done today although I didn't really feel like after some bad news this morning,I have a little nissan micra(03 plate) which we use as a loan car and I know it's only a micra but it's been very reliable,anyway had a phone call this morning to say that the current customer using it had written it off which put me in a stinker of a mood tbho but there we go
So I put the front brakes brakes on along with fitting the O/S/R hub,lateral links and drive shafts all round.

They just need a wipe over and some rubber cleaner applied Jon,it's mainly dust from sanding the shafts and c.v joints down on them.
It will be having a final clean up when it go's on the pit to have all the bolts done up once in road position.
It's doing my back in mounting all these's parts lay on my back underneath the car

Looking good Ryan, shame you haven't got AP Racing brakes but I suppose that the K Sports are a worthy second choice. 
Shame about the green flying machine as having used it myself I know what a cracking little car it is.

Your initial silence and your subsequent barrage of good natured swearing told me what you'd really prefer, but like I said you could always put AP Racing stickers on your calipers.

Well, unless the rotors have curved, handed, internal cooling veins, aren't the external grooves running in the opposite direction, to a normal rotor?
Wouldn't you be centrifugally retaining water, brake dust etc?

The packets had a sticker showing rotation and looking at some google images they all seem to run the way I have them but you've got me questioning that now lol??????
