Wow what a difference 
A couple of scabby pics for starters, it's been like the tropics out there, I'll do a proper shoot when I've cleaned the car next
The car now sits evenly when you brake instead of the nose going down hard... and does it ever stop
I need a dry day to test them out properly though
A massive thanks to Andy and Rhys for sorting this one out, top marks for a top conversion

The quality of these brackets look fantastic, is there any news from ACE motorsports as to when they will be available for purchase?. I'm also after a set of OEM rear discs does anyone know of a pair in new condition?.

Give Andy a call as he is putting something together as we speak, the brackets are all there ready they are very high quality and the finish to them is spot on.
When you say OEM I assume you mean Brembo like on mine now ?
How's the re-build coming on John you have been quite of late ?

Dean my car now stops in some order !!!
This is the first time tonight that I have been able to get out in the dry and what a difference... very very controlled, absolutly no judder or any vibration at all... it's perfectly smooth at all speeds and equal between front and rear with no heavy nose dipping to speak of
the peddle has just the right amount of travel on it also
As you may be able to tell I'm

Will give mine a tidy try tomorrow after the mapping is complete.

Good god John who would have thought a nut would cause such troubles 
Your getting there that's the main thing, it's a big old job especially when you look into the detail like spraying the engine bay etc. August will soon come around and I'm looking forward to seeing the results here for sure... was it a 2.2 build in the end this time ?
To say I happy with my brakes is an understatment for sure
