helicoil insert ???

Thought about that but got the last one from X-part on the way, for £40 - I'd pay that much for the helicoil with shipment etc

I've bought a couple of 190 calipers from flea bay, I'll recon the 2 carriers from these to take the new calipers, I'll use the new one to secure the caliper that's holding but only just at the moment

I've got a pair of calipers and hangers off my V8, can dig them out if your interested?
I know you only need the hanger but the caliper is no good to me then. All cleaned ready to be painted but changed my mind and fitted monster AP's and Brembo's.
How much are they worth?

Thanks for the offer - sourced a couple of calipers from ebay so will strip the carriers off them

What Brembo's etc did you fit - any pics?

Bought a brand new pair of SV ones in red which are the higher spec than the black ones and as for the discs, standard SV discs will not fit the 260hubs so had ally bells machined by AP in Bromsgrove with 360mm discs which are even bigger than the SV's.
Had to fit monster brakes as I fitted 20" wheels which made the standard brakes look tiny!

they sound impressive, how does the braking feel. and we still need pictures

I believe these are the 20" wheels mentioned.

Iv' seen these and believe me peter you don't want to see them, you will want a set as they look that good, if Gaz manages to post a picture I will have to look away as I know I will have to own a set : mind you .......do I feel a mod coming on !!!!!
