Thought they where quite good pics till I noticed the yellow bins!

Will do some better ones later,

Gave it a good clean last night and am quite pleased with the results, the wheels are matt and peeling though so really ought to get some of those new wheels in the for sale section!

Been after a BRM for a wee while and finally had the budget last week, it matches my company mini that is also brooklands green!

Im sure Ive seen that Mini before, has it been in Miniworld/Mini Magazine? I had my Mini in Miniworld back in May 2001 but Ive had to scrap it now, Looking for another now though (Something silly) after having a ride out in a Mini with an R1 engine the other day!!

Bear in mind the ZR discs wont fit the BRM, different sizes unfortunately.

Hi and Welcome,

Your car is a minter - would you like to swap? or at least clean mine too?

Last time mine shone that much it had just left the factory...

this has lost me again! everyone has advised me to get the 282mm discs and pads. what needs to be done/bought to make these fit?

Either Buy these

or fit the calipers et al. off a ZR160

Should point out the first link will fit straight to your car. The second option allows for bigger brake discs.

been reading up on this and now realise that the 282mm discs require the calipers and carriers to go with them. so what is the difference between the zr160, zs180 calipers and the 600ti calipers?
