Hi-Spec billet 4 325mm Conversion from Checkpoint Aberdeen £858 for the front plus £150 for all the braided hoses, on the rear I have just put on Black Diamonds need to change the callipers though
BUT
I've heard some bad stories about the quality of the Hi-Spec kit.
Kenny @ Checkpoint must have put a 1 in front of the price for the brake lines.He should have just charged you about £50 for the set
.
Nice looking motor by the way
Should look good when it's done
Check out this post there are pics of the front seats they are not bucket seatswhipsey wrote:any pics of the front seats i guess they are cobra buckets

More recent pics with Eyebrow, new kidney,Scorpion Full System and also someone suggested installing Xenon kit.
I'm not convinced that the eyebrow looks good will wait til it's finished before I decide

Xenons

Thats OK
Just gone and got me a cooler
Looks to be a perfect size for the front of the tourer.
Let me know what you think of the Hi-Spec brake kit
It's a bit like the setup on my tourer
The only differences are disc diameter and the £Â£Ã‚£
Wouldn't mind having a good look at the car when it's done

Measures 600x450x45mm and should fit nicely in front of the rad
Thinks it could be the "elusive" Volvo 960 one
Overton had 2 of them
BUTT
wanted £45 + vat
Got this one for £15+ postage
Pm me your number and i can let you have a look at it
I work in Aberdeen anyways
P.S.
Already got a manifold/Garrett t04 turbo and a set of throttle bodies
AND
If you'd got in touch with ME, there's a good chance i could have saved you some £Â£Ã‚£Ã‚£Ã‚£ on a brake kit

fitting harness to seats that recline or fold forward is not a good idea as you can end up snapping the seat if you have an accident.whipsey wrote:i bet they grip well are you fitting harnesses in there?
looking good mate. them brakes look mega and the interior, i odnt even want to guess at how muc that has cost.
nice work

Put it this way I'm nearly skint haha up til now since march I have spent 15k and is worth every penny but as I said in a previous post this was a dream to restore my 1 and only Sport, seems quite sad to some and comments such as that I could have bought a brand new car for the money I have spent, I'm just looking foward to driving it1an wrote:fitting harness to seats that recline or fold forward is not a good idea as you can end up snapping the seat if you have an accident.whipsey wrote:i bet they grip well are you fitting harnesses in there?

worth every penny the value of this will only go up unlike a brand spanking new motor that if you kept it for ten years would be worth ****
