    Id possibly shave the caliper a touch before. I run spaces. I just don’t like them. Esp on an 8 second car.

    It’s not the front runner rim that worry me I’ve got them. It’s forking out another 7-800 for puddly tires I’ll use rarely

    Haha pesants life forever cava lol put some Simmons and clear altenzas on that VS and it should look mint 😂😂😂 still dont one know how you talked me into using them lights back then lol

    Was around the same time you were in the habit of sitting on random objects

    power figures are something once I sort out all the little bits on mine to finish off. it will be respray time and then look at running gear overhaul. could get the LS swap after all or will just copy what you have LOL. Id have to rob a bank to do that though.

    ok I’m well and truely scratching my head. Why not just buy a legit VY with a ls already. They are prob cheater then a conversion would cost.

    Cava I reckon with the power that LSa is going to make just from a performance point of view you want nothing less than 343mm. And if you are concerned with the price of tyres on a car like your you are doing it wrong… Bdj-007 I am not sure if I have read if you are having this engineered? What state are you in?

    the 4 pot 320mm Wilwoods would be better then mine. If I can fit 15’s on then I’ll get em. I rather put good money towards better rims then tires.

    280mm with black caliper. Mainly so i can run my berlina hubcaps down the line. You looking at this route as well?

     

    yeah I am mate. Current brakes are 343mm so I can’t run anything less the 17 inch. Which makes finding a front runner Hard and pricey.

    I have 2 18inch front runners but I’m still yet to be be told if I can run them or not. Tires also aren’t cheap for them. Bout $800.

    Lastly how am I meant to trial for you alumstars with big brakes.  :facepalm:

    I’m a plumber. I’m disgusted that you haven’t used priming fluid prior to glueing.

    Good choice on the A2A mate. That fits perfect.

    FYI the closer you can have the back of the A2A  to the radiator the better. It creates less of a low pressure area between the 2 cores.

    Most people have the a2a sit further forward which creates a turbulent area.

    What you have done should work mint.
