Joe is a very busy man ... he hardly gets the time to work on these projects (seeing as he is working after hours on other things as well).

Ok.... sorry for keeping evey one in the dark about the brakes, but since I've lost a mechanic early this year work has been extreemly busy for me, & to try & get these projects done & have a famliy life is at the moment imposible plus the new mustang rotors that I'm getting compaird to the DBA slotted rotors, well theres 4mm hat height difference which means I have to remake the calipier braket to compensate for the difference, the kits will fitt aprox 80% E series 17# wheels which we have already tried. As for the engineers certificate they are giong to cost me about $6500.00 in kit form, so another way around this is to have them fitted on the car & then get them engineerd which would be around $300.00 spacers & all....... this will be an extra fee charged by the engineer, if you wish to get it done ???
With the cheaper mustang rotors I can keep the costs down... the complete kit is................. $1950.00

2x 4 spot calipiers
2x turbo grooved 330mm rotors
4x braided aproved brake hoses
EBC front brake pads
2x 5mm wheel spacers
2x 10mm wheel spacers
set wheel studs
set wheel nuts
exchange front spindles
AU type floating front hubs.

also have other things happening in the works ie : more cams, modified EA-ED manifolds & throtle bodies up to 68mm...... modified EF-AU manifolds..... i6 MAP intersepter (run bigger cams without the vacuum problems) with the stock ECU........ Stall convertors...... also LPG goodies.... as well as befores & after dyno reading & ET's & my favourite 5.0 ltr stuf ....... web page getting there will have all my gear with some pics on whats listed......................... Hey Brad

Thanks guys

Joe CMS..........

ps................... the saloon car that we sponcer came first out of all Fords (state series points only) at Easter Creek 3 weeks ago, he will be also featured on the web as we will continue our comitment with him.

well you wont really get massive 2 pots as such icon_razz.gif but yeah joe does the 4 pot setup with no abs for round $1900 i think so need to call him.....cause i dont think he had time yet to work out the abs issues....and im also not sure if the 1900 was fully engineered.

He also does a complete 2 pot setup same as on the EL GT - not sure if this included fitament of larger rotors.

Thank goodness my ute is non-ABS ... I don't think the 330mm rotors and 4-piston setup is going to be as much as the $1900 mark .. as there is not as much involved as there is for fitting to E-series and AU1 vehicles.

I was going to ask last time I there ... but forgot to as I had other things on my mind (ie: power steer pump and steering rack problems)
