I reckon that there's scope for some holes in those steering arms, you're slacking in your old age. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:

What I dont understand is the theory behind the centerlock. Its not as if there is a quick wheel change needed like in touring car or F1. I would have thought four titanium nuts and studs would weigh less than a big nut and a spigot?

Carl, Did you machine down an oem disc, Or did you just knock your own up.? It's fucking hard to explain that you've knocked somone else up!! On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:
Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

Si Si , i was going to have a lump of nodular iron cast , but when i went down the foundry it looked to have expanded a fair bit so gave ,it a miss, more employees usualy meens more expence, so dropped in in my local factor, and what do you know they had a pair of solid early metro disks in stock, when i looked at them they had clearly been sat on the shelf for a very long time , but still cost me 2009 prices, lol |

is that a random drill pattern and why not go for the max disc size to fit under those 13" rims if you have had to build all of the components to mount the caliper? I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

drill pattern looks like a very shallow C-pattern to me.

Also because 460kg of Mini doesn't take a great deal of stopping. The old brakes (same size) were perfectly capable.
