Best of all the pads come with instructions including torque values! :D

Now I'm seriously contemplating the Mugen slotted disc rotors, and micro-mesh brake lines!....G'ah god help me lol. :eek:

Nice pads Mat, i can see you were over the moon that they included the torque values haha.

And all these new editions to your car... i thought you were heading over seas for work?

Yup. I still am all being well. It's just that I'm waiting for my prospective employer to get their thumb out and organize the visa. AT this stage I've no idea if and when anything will happen so I'm continuing on with my addiction while I wait. :D

As soon as the visa becomes a reality I'll either be parting my car out, or selling it as is if I can find a buyer.

He's gonna sell the parts to me for a 1/4 of the original price when he goes overseas. LOL

Wooow! that's bargain, and the labour is free too. LOL..


hey Mat, I thought you just changed your brake pad while you install your mugen grille and mesh. Already worn out after just 1 track day? :confused:

No, not worn out. Just not as much bite as they had originally (that's going to happen after a track flogging) and I only intended to keep the Lucas pads installed untill I got the Mugen ones. Oh and you were right about the Lucas pads, they're very dusty!
