how did the brakes go with the paint on the rotors? that would ok been a scary first drive

 

Nah it was fine. Left the old pads in to cut the paint off. Took it easy around the block a few times until the burning paint smell was gone. The scary bit was having the calipers on the wrong sides so the bleed nipple was at the bottom and therefor wouldn't bleed properly. So on the 3rd or 4th pump I started to get brakes..

AFAIK they were mounted on standard struts, I put them on my original ke20 struts. It is a floating disc setup and appears to work very well so far. Still to put some nice new bendix ultimate pads on. Also working on a remote booster setup, not that it is absolutely necessary.

They were bolt on for me as someone else did all the hard work.. The backing plate is part original with some custom work. And needed some minor grinding to fit properly.
