haha well the other side was rusty - and if my brakes got that good-a workout they wouldnt be rusty :cheers:

least now everyone realises im not a whinging female and their was really something wrong!! ..... and at least Cam did my rear and not my front!!

ones been snapped for a while Richie .... but it satin such a way on the caliper that it didnt leak - when they changed my pads yesterday they saw it .... its bent and snapped ... and just disintergrated when they took caliper off.

Other one is rusty and probably pay me to get that replaced as well.

And my disc were so badly in need of machining that theeir machine was "heavy duty" enough for the job so they had to take them to someone else.

that sounds like my old front brakes, they were getting really spongy and when i pulled off the wheels to get the suspension off we found that the caliper centre seals were gone on both sides.. that and the discs looked like they had ridges in them!

My brakes are good now but they shudder when they get hot cause they werent bled properly when they were changed.

yes the place said i was a very lucky girl!!!!

thats why on the country cruises i didnt push it as much because i knew something wasnt right with the brakes!

hmmm have to make sure im alright for cruise Sunday then - cos i will have New n Improved brakes to test :cheers:

well it'll give me the confidence to shove my foot on the accelarator more cos now at least i know i can stop!!

yeah got to iron out this roughness in my car .... i was listening to it when they started it up at brake place and yeah its sounding a bit like an old jallopy!

gotta get price on Redline Gearbox oil today for paulie - all 18Litres of it. Oh and i was at the brake place looking thru a holden mag .... thats all they had honest .... and there was a picture of my mechanic 'ironing' out some problems on some featured guys car ....... bloody trev he is!

haha i cant believe that you let a Trev do all the work!

I have to change my gearbox oil too, mines getting a little crunchy, i dont think that is has ever been changed.

My mate is getting some stuff though where he works.

I have still got a couple of thoudans kms till my next service, luckily...

    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
    • Forgot to mention. I love the fact that Greg, Gregged Up, the model of his car, that has so many gregged up stories about its build! I had to have a little laugh. At the same time thinking "That's the sort of thing I'd do to myself!"
