  1. Well I didn't have emry paper so I just did a Duncan and sent it... slowly... with lots of cutting fluid. One side is now done and it wasn't as bad as I was thinking and the caliper mounts up nicely, still have 1 side to do but was doing this in between coats of paint on the inside of the castor brackets. Left a nice lip for welding also which is the next step then the whole thing can be painted and reinstalled. Brakes look tiny now but there's excellent clearance around the caliper which can only be a good thing. Has any ever tried those ebay high temp caliper vinyls? I was thinking of getting some basic white outline NCR logos for the calipers to give them some flair. Also got some new MTB flats, first time with "proper" shoes. A mate has some new gray laces which should tone them down as he;s keen on the blue ones lol. They sound like Basketball shoes on the floor boards lol they feel really tacky.
  2. As in rough up the surface with it?
  3. I have no idea how old you are brotato, but you sound unhip 🤣 At 40, yeah I moved out last week 😉
  4. Is this all some boomer shit I'm too Millennial to understand????
  5. Hold up... Did Duncan just tell me, in his own way, to send it?!
  6. ok found it, for others it's here - Now I get ya.
  7. HPR is what/who? Also, FMD that adds up quick!
  8. Not a heap of time last night and one of those sessions where you spend an hour but the outcome seems like a few mins work. Finished straightening up the castor brackets, ensured castor arms still go in and smoothed off and cleaned up the mounting surface ready for brackets to be welded in. Spent the rest of the time roughing up/cleaning up paint/grime/rust but couldn't find the metho to prep so didn't get to throw some paint on the inside before the bracket gets welded in and I have no access.
  9. Legend, good work. This forum needs an app again, doing this shit on a mobile browser does not tickle my balls at all. @prank why no more app? $$??
  10. I'm missing some things then as I thought it was an under 10k job. Still MUCH cheaper and better outcome than a manual sequential IMO. The TCU is what, 2500 or so? When I looked at transmission they seemed to run about 4k (really depends on age/condition and what it came from, this is for ZF8HP70, 75 and above are much more expensive but I'm only 4cyl). Where's the rest go? Bellhousing adapter? 1-2k? Tailshaft 1k? Wiring ??? I doubt she's reading this, thankfully neither does mine. This is a safe space here
  11. OMG I am so dumb, I do have a drill press... but that means removing the hub... probs worth it. OK need to focus on meeting lol
  12. Might go have a look, i do have cutting fluid here. It's more about getting it square. I don't have the best laser eye leveler.
  13. Front brake job moved up the list, pray for me when the time comes... This was much harder to get than I anticipated.
  14. All good, people use the terms interchangeably. If you're willing to share, I'd be keen to understand the total cost of the swap when you know.
  15. Race Chrono (paid) gets my vote, controls the GoPro as a rempote and does overlays on the video for you.
