Wow, they came out pretty well !! Hopefully get a chance to do some more before the workshop gets ripped to bits.

That is Steve's new garage business, its not open yet so we got in there and took a few pics while there was room.

That is me all the time. I am like a cross between Stirling Archer and Richard Rawlings

Since when did Steve get 5th Gen

Pics are great! I washed my car the other day and by the time I got home from the jetwash it was dirty again

Totally pointless

I have finally got around to getting myself a set of ATR brakes for my 5th gen, and paid a price that I was happy with. Yesterday I cleaned and painted my carriers and calipers but did not get around to fitting them.

As this is for the 5th gen I can fit the carriers and use the ATR 300 x 28mm 5 stud discs

I picked up a set of Pagid discs for £120 a pair. They come completely painted, even the disc face, so fingers crossed they wont rust up.

Just a quick before pic:

I fiited some of those discs to a friend's Ep3. I thought the paint would stink when burning off, but it just scraped
off after 2 low speed braking applications.

Yeah by the time I got home last night the faces were all shiny.

I got them fitted last night.

Old Prelude single piston caliper and 282 x 23mm disc

New ATR dual piston caliper and 300 x 28mm disc

With the wheel on

The brakes feel very good and was very easy to swap over.

Nice upgrade. Discs look good as well
