are they the ones from america?

PLEASE tell me moss have started doing them PLEASE!?!?!


ERM no Moss do sell them sorry, this is a set I made from scratch! easy enough to make though. I copied the US one BJ sells at superfast minis >_< lol if I get a mo I will do a template and a quick right up of whats needed and how to fit them.
Mine are slightly moddified because I have coil overs fitted but I do have A template for a std set.


If you get around to making the templates/instructions I would really like to see them also.

Fantastic project, its an inspiration to get mine sorted. I love the carbon bits you've fitted.

Luke.

I must say that your attention to detail is superb. I hope you don't mind but I would like to copy so many of your ideas!

Did you get a chance to measure up your flip-front brackets?

Stupid question.

Do those cyclinders, replace the brake and clutch master cyclinders then?

What about the clutch slave cylinder on the housing? And the Brake slave cylinder? Do you plumb them in as normal?

What are the benefits of using this system?

Hi Luke
copy away pal not a problem mate...I did manage to measure up the brackets and Ferrit has very kindly offered to draw them into a cad package and post up when hes done so its all good.

dezshearer
This system does away with the master cylinders completely! the wheel cylinder are plumbed in as normal and the clutch slave stays the same...the benefits are huge my clutch is now very light to operate and the brakes are much more positive and completely adjustable front to rear so with a turn of a knob mounted on the dash you can give the front or rear brakes more presure. Because the car has changed so much and the weight has changed dramaticly it would be crazy to leave the system standard and the rear would lock up without a doubt.

and the water valve is dead easy...come on guys look a little harder LOL think A series!
