Good choice on the K-Sports, had a set on my 200SX and they were very good.

I believe quite a few people are now running them. The M3 is coming along nicely! :D

I'll be very interested to see how you get on with the K-Sports Mike; I love mine but then, mine are stopping less weight, less often. Let me know how you get on please :)
I'm looking forwards to seeing the whole thing roll out. The car on track and road, Mike at the sprints and maybe, just maybe competing side by side at the odd sprint. Should be good.

Thanks everyone,

looking forward to it stu would be good to see if we can both piss the GT3,S off .

If we do they will probably ask for another class for cars with engines in the back.

The car is mainly being built for spa, ring, trackdays and a sort of sprint car would just like no hassle and no endless list of upgrades you have to keep chasing.

Daniel thanks for the comments ive lived in benfleet 37 years . all the best mike

Brakes look good Mike, how much weight have you saved do you think?

Carley can't believe you have taken the dash out etc when i showed her the photo's.
