Phil,

What size rotors are you running under the big AP Racing calipers?

I am looking at AP caliper 6pots road version with large pad, but not sure whether to go 1.10" width X 13" rotor or 1.25" wide X 13" rotor. This car would be lucky to more than 950 - 1000kg kerb weight when finished - hopefully!

HI Ant,
The fronts are 365mm x 32 rotors.

at 1000kgs that is light, my car is about 1200kgs.

Phil

Slowy,

I wouldn't have any pic's as I built mine pre digital and wasn't so snap happy with film. I could try and sketch something for you soon.

I like CHANMADD's arms that project rearward. There has been some talk on this set up before, but I don't recall what the concensus was. The arms would be under tension rather than compression when accelerating.

One thing in favour, it keeps the area under the seat clear for best seat positioning.
