Brake Upgrade

With the extra power I decided to upgrade the brakes. I have not really been happy with the brakes since I built the car.

MNR now provide light weight discs and billet bearing carriers. I decided to upgrade to these and also fit a pair of rear wildwood calipers for the rear to replace the Sierra items. As these catch on my 13 inch Compomotives there is an added bonus with the wildwood's that they wouldn't catch.

The only downside was that I needed the rear hubs machined to fit the new discs, I sent them to MNR to get this done, Marc machined them down to size within a couple of days. 

The kit was a straight swap and fitted well, when fitting the new bearing carriers I took the opportunity to fit new rear bearings. 

I took time to bleed the brakes, after I bled the rear calipers from the bottom and then from the top, the brake pedal became extremely solid with good feel. I think that the rear calipers may have been a problem all along.
