Default classic sprint/track car upgrades, advice needed.

Right guys I'm looking at my next round of mod's to my classic sprint/track car and was looking for abit of advice and a point in the right direction re parts etc. Now this car has always been on a budget so price has to play a factor as well as performance.

1• Brakes. (Current set up)
Front. Ksport 6 pots, 330mm discs, ebc blue stuff ndx pads.
Rear. Standard single pot callipers and disc's with ebc blue stuff ndx pads.

Was thinking of upgrading to 2 pot rear callipers, and discs. what are my options? Are brembo's worth the extra cost ??
New pads all round, something that will warm up quick for the sprints but won't fade on track days. Find the ndx slow to warm and with poor feel.

2. Swirl pot set up. What parts do I require, external pump, swirl pot, pipes, wiring etc

3• Rear firewall. Something msa compliant. Where to source?

4• brake bias valve, Is it a worthwhile mod and best place to source?

Any help appreciated,

Thanks Tim,

Hi,

I have available an X-spec external swirlpot, X-spec Bosch 044 external fuel pump, Bolt in fire wall and all fuel hose/fittings for rear swirl pot/pump setup if you are interested?

Located in Bristol but can arrange delivery no problem.

Thanks

Tom
