  1. i went down that route got the vented disks as advised sierra calipers drilled out caliper etc still not fit............had to have the disks turned down on a lathe the brakes are far better.................but not sure if it was worth all the hassle (doing it on my drive in the cold) i did see that some one used standard disks, but spent about £80 on some soopa doopa pads ... maybe another , much more straight forward option
  2. a v-twin bike engine (honda sp2/ rc51) would sound sweet and has loads of low down grunt and about 130bhp
  3. had my truck about 18 months now........... and still think it is the MOST practical car i have ever owned.... and it still makes me smile sometimes when i see it first week on the road doing it`s job more work steam powered ? day off
  4. no Tom that is our summer pricing and if your getting "fun with drawals", then you could even have a potter around in mine ...
  5. thank you.. and , sorry, do they fit straight on WITH my original, existing calipers thanks ... Keith
  6. hi Tom... sorry to be a pain.. i have just looked at front disks, but am un-sure which will fit.. the 2 links below seem to have different hub depths... could you please let me know which specific disks i will need (make model year etc) thank you very much.........

  7. how much for the lowering springs please..... if your breaking it.. and do you know how much lower than standard they are thank you ... Keith
  8. thank you Tom...... will check it out... it was noted on last MOT that the pads were low and disks were pitted and scored, so it i have to change them, i may aswell upgrade the whole thing.. so it will be fine with 15 inch wheels too thank you......... Keith
  9. is there a straight swap out there... one which needs no or little modifications or fabrications.. (as it would be done on my drive way, and i have not much access to fabrication gear) i am fairly competent with a set of spanners and mostly.......... will it make a noticeable difference thanks fellas.....Keith
  10. how much for the lowering springs please..... if your breaking it.. and do you know how much lower than standard they are thank you ... Keith
