I've just ordered some drilled/grooved discs and green stuff pads for my S3C any ideas where I can get a ready made set of braided hoses for the front?

Are you considering doing the front hoses as one piece.
This takes away all the crap pipework, and looks so much better!
still should be about the same price.
Braded hose is about £10 a mitre
ends are about £4 each.
Put the protective coils back on after the job is done.
Total lenght including ends 20 inches and no longer.
Do away with the bottom bracket completly (unbolts)
I slotted the top bracket and made a bush which was put on the pipes when made, and tapped into the hole on the top bracket and araldited to keep it in position but it had to be clonked in so it is not going to move. email me for photos if you want.
all the best

I've sent the pictures to the reply, hope you got um !

Mike, have a look at the brake disk alternatives thread under general tvr stuff re. cross drilled disks - seems to be a thumbs down.
