Frequent flyer Bronze Posts: 41 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Update time: haven’t had time to post up due to work and doing bits and pieces on the house While I was in Sydney the other week i picked up a set of EVO Brembos from a wrecker and have been gathering bits for them. Now my braking system will consist of EVO Brembos TNF slotted rotors (320mm front and 300mm rear) QFM HPX Pads HEL Braided lines Penrite Fluid Rebuilt and repainted callipers These would be fitted by now but my current wheels don’t fit ![]() Motor wise the 75 is still at the engine builder. The block has been dipped, bored and honed and everything sized up. The only problem he has encountered is that he didn’t have access to the weights to balance up the crankshaft. No one locally had the correct size, the only thing that came close was the v6 commodore ones but they were 3mm to wide. He ended up driving to Sydney and browning a set for a friend. so hopefully it wont be long until it get that back, heads have been done but haven’t seen them There will be a new exterior mod happening in the next week which I can’t wait for, just need to find the time to do it (DSCF2339_zps05059ce4 (Small).jpg) (DSCF2341_zps102658cf (Small).jpg) (DSCF2344_zps04d3c103 (Small).jpg) Attachments ---------------- ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
