I just had the same problem. I wanted to thank you for posting this as it saved me a hell of a lot of time and trouble!

Found one. Feel free to delete thread.

Hi y'all, Does anyone got a drum lying around. I'm having a stab at a BBQ project in prep for summer!

painting brake calipers
essex_dub replied to andynick69's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
I would go with the above, they'll get covered in brake dust and shite in no time, to get a perfect finish would be very difficult. Wire brush and brake cleaner was all I used. Just remember to mask off. I had good results with halfrauds caliper paint. -
Cheers for the suggestions peeps, I /think/ i'm gonna go for Milltek non res cat back OR a Jetex. There's obviously alot of R&D gone into them and despite how appealing a custom job is I think bolt on is best for me here. I just need to get to some meets to hear them so I can get a fuller picture. I might end up replacing it with standard as I do love the V6 wurble when I give it some beans and I wouldn't want to cover that, only to amplify it so passers by and street folk can join me in grinning like a teenager boy who just felt a pair of tits for the first time..

So it's all about the larger diameter tubing? And bungy, when you say you like the way it sounds, what does it sound like? Because honestly (and i'm not having a dig), that means nothing to me, can you describe it to me if poss? Because I was thinking about going non res, I don't do alot of motorway miles and I like a bit of noise (within limits). That said though, I don't want it so loud, as in as loud as aftermarket bike cans because I don't want anyone hearing me miles away to know that I /might/ be exceeding the speed limit...

You Sir, are a genius! Thanks! Recommend any brands?

Ok, yes, it's another exhaust thread, i've searched through the many others but not quite finding the answer i'm looking for! Everyone says Miltek has a 'nice sound' but what does that mean? Raspy, like a motorcycle can? Like the strange sound that comes out of new TOTR Porsches? I don't want the VR sounding like a fiesta with a cherrybomb! I'd like to have a large displacement V6 sound, you know, almost like a burble. Anyways, any suggestions would be welcome, thanks in advance!!

Oh my word, that lump looks like sex on toast! Awesome effort!

Is anyone going to Renegade Dubs next Wednesday (5th May)? I've hactually never been but I know i'd love to see some other VR's there. I'll be driving up from Rayleigh..

Actually, my 3rd and 5th are pretty darn close together. Washers on selector cables you say??
