Rotors and bells for what ? and what thickness ?


http://www.touringcarspares.com/part_list.php?cat=brake

This place has some bells for their 332x32mm floating discs, as well as some used discs.

Almost tempted myself, although I'd need new bells made up as the PCD is different than my discs.

*Update

Fitted the cooler I sourced cheaply. Originally a front diff cooler on a WRC Escort, so I just took the sticker off and walla....it automatically became a power steering cooler

Ignore the rusty slam panel, strangely enough its the only part of the car that is and hasn't been refurbed or renewed yet. So a proper bracket will be made to hold cooler in place when the new panel comes before RS Central Day.

Waiting on my front wheels and strut top covers back from being refurbed, so got stuck in cleaning and undersealing areas under the arches.

Almost ready for Central

P.S. For those asking about coolers and other crap that get offered to me (Wenny, Ronnie ), I'm asking for prices etc.

Yeah, been thinking of maybe keeping it and throwing some salt over the panel to make it worse...you know, give it the full rusty aesthetic look that accents its owner

Slapped some smaller rims on the front last night and took it for a good long burn around the mountain roads. Did some heavy 60 miles and the cooler works a treat, chuffed Back on axle stands now waiting for the RL7's to come back.

Tonight's quick update is my freshly blasted and coated strut top mounts and refurbed front wheels, since the back wheels were done just after christmas.

Just the slam panel to sort now and I'm happy for the time being
