How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

There was a guide for this somewhere, can't see anything in the Wiki. Think it's just a case of braking one of the circuite board tracks.

Did you have trouble finding wheels that'll go on there without catching, or was it simple?

And Eko, was that the manifold you said you had made up when I picked up that stuff on Saturday?

They are designed to fit under 15" BBS

Search WMS in the traders section of the forum, loads of info there but for all four corners you are looking at 4 figures 8O

Fascinating. That outer piston does protrude alot, hence my question.

Looks awesome with vented discs on the back. And yeah, I can imagine it's not cheap going for all 4 corners. Worth it?

They are shithot! I have just the fronts on my track car and there is a lot of difference in feel between mine and Fergs, much more responsive, I can only assume they take a lot of 'slop' out of the standard rear setup 8)
