Sorry for $hit quality but I didn't have time to mince about setting up night mode/flash etc lol So I adjusted the hue and saturation on PS to show the glowing disc :wtf: Is it the slides sticking in the caliper? I can't be ****d to check it yet, will wait 'till the weekend :thumb:

Are they classic Delco calipers?
Time to get some ate's on there.
Don't know what they are yet LLTN lol
Probably though, 14SR - and going from past experience, I'll wager you sir. would be correct! :thumbs:
What's the going rate on ATE then? Must be bigger than standard 'valva' items?

I "forgot" about taking it easy on new discs and pads once and made the 3 Spokes too hot to touch.
Local chavs probably thought you had the latest craze in Neon discs or something.

lol no charvs at my workplace matey! I get the 'why mess about with a car for?' questions all the time! Oh I long for the day that a fibreglass kitted monstrosity turns up in our carpark and they understand the difference between barry and subtle/oem! lol
oops lol.
Answer to your question.. Yes, get some 256mm ATE callipers. Also change the brake fluid because youve probably boiled the hell out of it lol
ha ha yeah!
Well I was feeling kida emo with my suicidal sr stoppers anyway folks!
I know that feeling, im just about to uprate my SRs brakes to a GSi Servo+MC, Brembo 4 pot front calipers with 308mm dics and a rear disc conversion! oh and dot 5 liquid!
