Have to post this. Somehow I think I might have a bit of a boost leak :/ This is the piece off the front of the turbo housing.

Sorry to dig up a bit of an old thread, but how much room do u have between the screen and gearknob when in 1st 3rd and 5th?

I would like to know this too Jase. Wanting to somehow hook up a 7" screen down in the cigarette space below the icc. Only problem I would have is the amount of room between the gear knob and the screen (manual car). I could see me putting my knuckles thru the screen when selecting 1st, 3rd and 5th lol.

Hmmm. He had massive a$$ tyres on the back and huge front mount, so I am assuming he is packing some power. I didnt even bother giving him a run cause. 1. It is double demerits 2. Im that ghey that my car is borderline stock pushing a whopping 219rwkw.

Dam those brembos are cheap. Good buy. I did see those premium ones on ebay. But as usuall the missus hates u spending money on something that isnt really broken (she didnt buy the whole "its safer" thing, lol). Well il go talk to supercheap and hopefully I can get a front set of slotted in factory replacement. Cheers for the help.

Ok. Cheers guys, so am I able to go into supercheap and say give me a rotor 320x28mm? Or am I able to go to 320x30?

http://autospeed.com/cms/title_BA-Brake-Upgrade/A_2702/article.html Just found this. It was quite a help. Again, I will double check the sizes tomorrow. From all the pics I am seeing of pbr upgraded brakes, they look nothing like mine. My rotors are not slotted, my calipers arnt red, and my front rotor thickness measures about 28mm (unless I am worn down to an illegal limit :/)

Wow bigger than front? What has got me stumped is that my sizes are different to everywhere I look. I will try and measure again tomorrow because I want to go and see about new front rotors from supercheap, since they got a sale on $120 for dba slotted rotors (I think they are 5000series). Also the car is a BF if it helps, maybe they went to bigger size from ba to bf?

Pic as promised. Surely these arnt upgraded but may aswell double check before I go and buy new rotors.

Hi guys, Just recently I have been looking into changing my rotors out for DBA 5000 street series and was out measuring my rotors and found they are:- Front - 320mm diameter Rear - 310mm diameter The calipers have PBR written on them, and from a little research I believe stock rotors are meant to be 298mm? Might be a stupid question but are these upgraded brakes, or do these cars come standard with PBR calipers + this size rotor. Also the calipers are silver not black or red. Cheers John. Might be a good idea to take a couple of pics to clarify what I'm talking about.

Merry Cruisemas fellas.

Anyone here know of a guy that owns a black xr6T in sydney with number plates "12PLAY". He wanted a run on saturday lol. Saw him in castle hill area.

Love what this thread has turned into

Sounds ok to me at the moment. Not sure what im up to that weekend yet though.

Wait till f6mark has his say :/ lol.

+1 for that

Im not saying I wasnt in the wrong panda. Because its true, I was an absolute idiot and now I look back and think if something went wrong it could have ended in tradgedy. I probably deserved the 7 months and $1700 fine to go with it. One thing for sure is when you losr your licence, you know your never going to do it again!

Isnt over 30km classed as high range (I may be wrong) I got done doing 147 in a 100 zone about 3.5 years ago on my reds and got 6 month loss of licence plus an rta notice saying no more points u get an extra 3 months. I appealed the extra 3 months, got sent to schooner school and after the course I got "let off" with only having to do 1 month extra. Good luck with it all, sometimes if u get the wrong cop they can be a complete ass. P.s I live in NSW

Yeah I suppose a badge or something would work. But give it a month. You will get used to it im sure

What about the gaping hole that will be left in the dash?

Might have to now that u have told me he is good. Will call in on the way home one day.

Yes it is, I drove past it this arvo

Mmmm. I wish him well then, when I went in he seemed like a good genuine bloke. Unlike some of the other performance shops where everyone seems to be stuck up and act like your an idiot etc.

Is this the guy with the huge walkenshaw banner on the outside of his workshop? I drive past it everyday as u come down the hill.

Wow. that's sad to hear, obviously must have been screwed around alot to have to do that. As I said before I have only heard one bad thing about him (good chance it wasnt true). And when I dealt with him he was great and offered alot of input and answered all of my questions.
