While everyone was at iQon today, I got some good work done on the beast, with the help of a few mates Installed the Goodridge braided brake lines, bled the fluid and replaced with some new Motul RBF 600, installed new Acre front pads, and while I was at it, installed the rear camber arms (easiest job I've ever done).
The car on all fours
The brake lines and front pads
Me replacing the pads
All done (that wasn't too hard)
Draining the brake fluid once we removed the first brake line. Just stored it in a good ol mount franklin bottle I had lying around
Old vs new
Fitted
The fitment was actually really good! The brackets and everything lined up perfect, length was perfect, so very happy with them so far. They even came with a full set of new replacement bolts and washers! Now to see how they perform...
Rear brake lines
Hardrace rear camber arms
On max negative camber setting, vs the old
There was all kinds of webs and spider eggs and shit on the old one. Pretty much a new civilisation growing in this bitch!
Me installing it

Now just need to install the fronts and get a wheel alignment.
On the rear left one (pictured above) I found the previous owner had put two washers behind each bolt. wtf... But then when I put the car back down on the ground I noticed why. The rear left wheel for some reason has way more neg camber than the right! Looks ridiculous. But I've got adjustable now so can easily fix that. I'll let the wheel shop worry about it
are them slotted rotars on the right way,? what way are the vains facing towards the caliper?
you referring to slits or rotor vanes?
i dont think slits matter which way they go but vanes do.
seems like that rotor got straight vanes, not directional curved vanes.
