We love progress Stopping is always handy (and sometimes a luxury in MK1s!).

[dubmc]

i need the bigger brakes for the weapon motor i'll put in it one day . . . . . . lol.

[GeorgeMK1]

Was there any modifications needed to put int he MK3 drums, or did they fit straight in??

George

[dubmc]

nope, they bolted straight on, handbrake cable and all - similar to the cordoba upgrade most people do.

[dubmc]

hmm just wondering if anybody had some advice or knew where i could get some extractors for this motor? my original plan fell through so any thoughts/knowledge of where to get extractors or which ones to get would be much appreciated....

or if you have an extractor for sale (probably unlikely) let me know!

cheers michael.

Not sure, if this helps much as it is overseas, however there are Hottuning ones on ebay, and it does say postage to Aus.

Speak to Evorobin, he is a importer for Hottuning mate

[Jarred]

or you could by brand new locally made ones at a fraction of what it'd cost to get them from overseas.

do a search, more than a few people have bought them, a mob in sydney make them. I've forgotten the name)

[dubmc]

thanks for the tips, i'll look into them all.

cheers.
