I would do the Spoons, but I still like my wheels too much
Formular Silver looks good with moonrock, lighter than CE28N as well.

I do really like those - in bronze

On a Nissan GTR they look evil.

Prodrive wheels are also an option

Bronze doesnt go with moonrock

But bronze are cheaper as they are a standard colour

No comment on the Prodrives I dont want to upset Chris

Dixon, you let the cat out of the bag proper, and its not going to be ANYTHING like the car in your sig??

It's just something nice I would love to have but not my new car.

Ok the timeattack dc5 is just 940kg with driver and the crx is 820kg Inc driver.

Dc5 is running 330mm disk and crx only running 282mm. If the material doesn't produce much heat then I don't really see why you need 2 piece for extra cooling, first the replacement disk is very expensive on 2 piece and 2nd thing is you are not going to get anymore stopping power if you are running the same disk and pad combo.

S2000 is only running 250ish bhp, and if 282mm is enough for 350+bhp crx then I think the stock size on the s2000 is enough for up to the similar sort of power. Maybe a small upgrade like the spoon calliper will do for a even force distribution on the pad and lose a little bit of weight.

I must say i never found the standard sized DBA discs and Ferodo pads lacking on my s2000 when it had 340bhp.

Dixon, mine was on Dyno Dynamics, the only one I trust. Corrects for ambient too.

We did a before and after to prove the increase, but all the mods were already on there so really just shows the increase from the AEM alone. I gained massive mid range which you can see below, 30 bhp in some places.



dark blue - MB stock
light blue - Gas stock

red - MB Mased
purple - Gas Mased.
Mmm my mate one might be 260at the wheels then not fly, I will ask him later tonight.
