Just tinkering in the shed and thought I'd share some shiny bits! Hope they pull all 1050kg up!

Wow - "Pace" 6 piston calipers. Are they made locally? Their own design?

Need a bit more skin off those knuckles there Zac!

Cheers

They are BREMBO calipers with a pretty new paint job.

I have hands like a ***** these days!!!! Long gone are the permanently stained fingers and grease filled cuts.

You don't get dirty hands working on a PACE!

Im glad they are good quality legal brake calipers. I have Wilwoods on my other car and although they work well I still question the legal-ness of them.

I didn't ask that question deano59. I was happy with the silver with black logo as it matches the look I'm going for with my car.

3 colour only rule - BLACK, SILVER and CHROME(polished steel or alloy) only!

Maybe a blue engine block for a slight contrast but that's a HUGE maybe!!

Everything is so clean and new and shiney (polished arms and rockers.... nice).

However, I feel that you really need to get dirty, so when a day in the garage leaves dirty/oily finger prints everywhere, everytime you scratch yourself or wipe your face you are one step closer to being a black and white minstrel...... yeah... thats what working on a car is..... isn't it?

Damn new age and your shiney bits.

Seriously, nice brakes and a great looking set up.

LOLOLOL. Man, I've done my time restoring old dirty cars. One of the reasons I bought a PACE. No more stripping, cleaning, restoring. YUCK!!

I don't know.. All that shiny billet and then surface rust on the hub assembly. What's up with that!

Would't have happened if it had a thick coating of grease and dirt...

Cheers

Dean, not sure if Pace offer other colours or other logos other than the Pace one, however at my shop (Paintwerks), I have a Roland GX24 professional vinyl cutter and a media blasting cabinet so we're able to change the colour of the calipers and the logo to anything you desire...should you desire.
