I've been really really slack of late. Got four new Hankook Ventus H437's for the FTO and a wheel alignment done. Feels way more responsive now though so I am a happy man. Now to get the motivation to do some of the other stuff that needs to be done.

New front dbs rotors and red stuff pads. Went to fit the rear rotors and they were the wrong ones. Fitted new pads. So much more to do.

Aza you haven't put on the discs and pads yet? I put them on this weekend on my car with Sahin and oh my!! You can feel the difference straight away. No shudder while emergency braking either. Now am repenting why I didn't buy a set of rear rotors during the Group Buy :P

I also taught Sahin how to install disc brakes and pads. He is a good apprentice. Quick learner that young lad, will do well :P

I kid you not...the old discs were a real pain in the ass to take out. Sahin spent quite some time to take them off all alone...I don't think I would've been able to get them off by myself. :)

Pulls up much nicer now. Has anyone used Goodridge Green brake lines? Not sure if it's just wow factor having coloured lines or whether they actually improve braking.
