Me and my mate made a jackpoint bracket to fit the jack itself . So the seemweld underneath isnt smashed up.

Works brilliantly .

I had these pads and these have great stopping power when warm. Are you also going to upgrade your brake fluid...?

This was my bedding in procedure for EBC  + Redstuff pads. Might be slightly different for your MTEC + Yellowstuff

 

Had to get vcds on at tuning shop to turn brake assist to 'calm' setting.

Reason : 10 emergency stops at 60mph after 1000 Miles!

Had to find industrial estate late at night, was great fun!

looking very nice mate! love the subaru type brakes :)

Well done mate - nice progress :) :thumbup: follow.

 

Quick question - the diffusor you plugged did it come from the factory like that with the removable panel?

Indeed it is very odd that has one - probably was specced like that from the previous owner. Yours is the first I've see with one.

I had a look at the adapter which holds the small panel and the product code doesn't come up on any online ETKA. Very interesting.

 

By the way - good stuff with the jackpoints. I'm missing both of mine. The Audi TT looks like a much better alternative.

No crazy hahaha . 36euros for 8pieces . 2pieces per jackpoint . 

Great thread mate. Great car too, just a make sure you check the pads now and again. There prone to separating from the backing plate.
