Re: Hopper stoppers brake upgrade

:stupid: i wasnt asking about the set up just the brackets and hubs, i reckon i could do the foot work on the rotors, pads and calipers. But im in favour of the ford falcon or holden commodore calipers :$ i just think it will be much much easier to get the calipers off wreckers and so on. Thanks Nick

Re: How hard/expensive to engineer this car?

you would have to take the rear seats out and change seating to 2 instead of 4 coz of the cage :S

shouldnt be to hard maybe have to upgrade brakes then that would be about it im guessing?
