Rear brake setup photo’s

to fit the new rear crossmember bushes, we removed the rear end of the car which gave me the opportunity to grab a few more photos of the rear brake conversion. I was hoping that there would be some identifying mark’s on the disc’s but unfortunately there isn’t.

The first photo shows the banksia hand brake setup and the second shows the backing plate which is bolted onto the standard arm and the caliper mounting holes. I will get another photo showing the hand brake cylinder next time (it is underneath). 

While i am at it, i am repainting the crossmember and trailing arms with black POR paint. It is interesting to see how messy the factory welds are on the crossmember.

KPGC110 GT-R Grill arrives

I have to give a big thanks to 2 guys in the US, firstly Chad for finally allowing me to convince him to sell it to me, and to Brian for picking it up and organising the shipping of it.

Finally, my original KPGC110 GT-R grill has arrived!  

The grill’s centre section is made of metal, and the side sections are plastic. As you may be able to see, a small section of the metalwork has rust bubbles, but i am hoping to be able to restore it in the future (that is, if i can find a way to match the paint colour).
