I have there 343mm kit. I’m happy with it. Could do with better pads tho. However the owner is doopey mother fucker and I hope he chokes on a chicken bone

Took the words out of my mouth Cav, i bought the 298mm kit and had to chase them for 2 weeks and still got the wrong parts. That being said once it was all fixed they are g…[Read more]

Has anyone had any experience with the UPC kits off ebay, or am I better off staying away from them?
Im looking at getting something similar to this, thanks

Thanks mate, is that your HR in the profile pic?

Yeah always a couple left over, ive got a whole jar full of spares from a car I wrecked which comes in handy when I misplace screws

Looks good, sucks about the thermo problems.. Would love to put a charger on mine one day. Car looks good too, probably my favourite VR SS colour 

Looks great, and even better with an Ls. Reminds me of the one my neighbours at the shack use to have although theirs was just a 6

Was so glad it was done when I finished, almost finished and went to test everything and had a few problems which just turned out to be a fuse thankfully

Thanks, yeah was a bit dirty in there plus I found the screw I dropped down the demister vents last time I had the dash out haha

Replaced the heater core over the weekend, defiantly needed replacing. Ended up cleaning out the heater box a bit and replaced the foam tape around some of the seals. Also cleaned everything I removed before putting it back into the car.

Dash out, this didnt take me long as ive done it a couple of times before

Thanks, yeah the A/C has to be degassed to do it the proper way but, I still havent put gas in it because it was winter

Thanks, really happy with how it has turned out

Over the last couple of weeks I have put some HDT headlight covers on, had a leather steering wheel re-trimmed and the handbrake grip and gear knob re-trimmed. Have bought a new heater core as the old one is now leaking and cant use my heaters without a strong smell of coolant. Have taken pretty much everything off or out of the car so the dash…[Read more]

Calais is still going fine being a reliable cleanish daily. Put my old exhaust from the acclaim on this because the factory system was rusty and falling apart, basically just a 2 and 1/4 cat back with high flow muffler and a hot dog in the rear, just gives it note and isnt loud. Cleaned up the factory wheels this afternoon which turned out not too…[Read more]
