Well if u can pick up another caliper tonight it would take about half an hour plus a brake fluid bleed!

Problem is, I don't have either and have never done the brakes before.

oh gosh, wish you were my neighbour Aaron!!!

I remember some 25GT taking like 1 minute in the opposite lane trying to over take someone, that was funny.

There wasn't anything really bad that happened.

Just a lot of overtaking. Dont remember any burnouts or anything.

Edit, I remember justin being fed up with someone going slow in front of him, so he went into another lane and boosted off, only to see a speed camera right in front of him, *slams on brakes*

Ide help out but I'm in SE subs. Just undo the rear bolts holding on the front face of the caliper and try and in seize it. You should be able to. Then just do em back up. Might get you to where u need to be, and if it does un seize then atleast if it f**ks up on the way u can do a quick temp fix.

But I seriously wouldnt be driving it. If the brake is clamping your going to have some serious heat issues and break something

my 2530 sees the light again! A bit dusty, nothin suss with the actuator. Its stock :ph34r:

Anyone have a foot pump with a pressure dial gauge? Want to check if ive set the actuator correctly... From what I could make from the japanese instruction manual, it says 179mm for 1.0bar. Although heaps of thread still remains. Does that mean I can go for moar? Can someone plz translate the table? Thanks

Cheers for the advices Aaron! Will give it a shot if not I'll just quickly pop into Brake Plus or something tomorrow and hope they do it fast.

It says if you run too much boost, there will be danger to the manifold

I'm doing some work with my cousins business to help him out with the social networking side of things / help getting his name out - basically it's a small online JDM car parts store and quickly building in size. Like on facebook if you feel like helping out :)

http://www.facebook.com/jdmracingau

a link to the store is on the facebook page.. check it out

also he's started up a youtube channel for product reviews and events / trackdays etc. and we'll be doing some "driver profile" type videos in the near future - so will need a few different cars / people I'm sure I'll contact some of you about this in the future!

/shameless plug - sleep time now brahz

THAT WAS ME! >.< Bloody bitch next to me was speeding up as I was trying to over take her... Twas rather frustrating... Especially being N/A :-(

As for an incident, there was one overtaking incident on the GOR itself, guy tried to overtake 3 of us at a corner, almost went head first into a semi, would have collected all of us... Twas early in the day, towards the end of the pack (obviously, me being in a N/A)

But f**k, I was driving so f**kin hard to try and keep up on that day!

I remember going up to shepparton, birds saw this.

Alvin was overtaking some bogan in an old xr8, the dude stepped on it and we almost hit an oncoming car (car swerved into emergency lane)

This was in the soarer, and the soarer was missfiring because his pod fell off... LOL
