Denzil,
Awesome braking !!!!! Good to see some grass roots braking developments for
Dattos. I'll keep that config in the back of my mind!
Thanks Denzil,
Cheers

Terry,
The car is sold and I did not think to record the details of the work!
However I am looking for another and will do an even better job this time
around, AND faithfully record same in detail to share with all. I will go
for a more sophisticated disc, the max that can fit with 15'' wheels.
Those brakes worked so well it was truly incredible how short the braking
distances were, from 60-0 in 109' I reckoned. This is better than any
Ferrari, BMW, or bikes like Hayabusa, ZX12R etc.
