Seems the ELGT Style Brake Upgrade Kit for the E Series is almost here.

Joe from Crescent Motorsports in Sydney and also Darren from Fentree Gully Auto Salvage in Melbourne are both doing these kits which will comply of;

Modified Spindles (Left+Right) on exchange basis
Twinpot Calipers (PBR or Tickfords)
330mm Rotors (although Joe might do a cheaper 297mm rotor kit too)
Braided Hoses

Approx price is about $1000-1500.

Thought i'd let everyone know again about this as seems to be a lot of interest, both sydney and melbourne will ship these out on your expensive of package/shipping (varies from state to state). If you are interested please let us know here as we need to know numbers.

Braided Hoses also available currently from Sydney for $280 (front and rear) ;(for those who dont know what braided hoses are basically you have rubber hoses, hotter they get more they expand. with metal/braided hoses your pedal stays firm all the time under pressure/heat)

Melbourne also do to braided hose kits as well!

Latest happenings!

Could you fit other calipers to the spindles when they are modified (ie AP 4 pistons), or would you need adapters
