Re: "Corsa LET build diary"

Re: "Corsa LET build diary"
Tried out my go pro camera, sound is awfull as i had it on the wrong setting.. lol

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJ1pelnbvJ8

Refurbed and painted some 2ltr calipers ready for my 300mm disks as the kit is finished, just need to check fitment on my car , if no adjustments need to be made they will go on sale.

Will be glad to get rid of my v6 brakes disks, are warped and pedal travel is awfull.





they should stop me ok
