Amber Red 2.0HDi GT

Afraid not. I've had no need for red.

Which paint do you use? And the word Peugeot - is that a sticker or something else?

 

[Abzynthe]

The black and silver is hammerite. But my orange is engine enamel.

Yes the peugeot is a sticker made out of vinyl that can cope with the heat

Excellent :thumbup.

One last question, how do you jack your car up?

 

[Abzynthe]

Probably not the right way lol. I have a trolley jack and a rubber puck and jack the car up just behind the jacking point.

Looks awesome Abz! :thumbup:

 

[Abzynthe]

Thanks

Honestly, I wasnt sure if it would look good with the orange being so bright. But I like it behind those wheels And, no more rust on the hubs

Fitted the R badge

Alright - to someone who knows nothing about this sort of thing - what do they give you over the ones already on the car ?

Compared to mine, these ones will work as I need new brakes anyway lol.

Apart from looks, grooves clean the pad surface and increase the brake faces (the leading edges of the grooves) so in theory the more grooves the more faces.
Good brake bite due to:
A - forcing pad material into the holes
B - increased braking surface (many leading edges in theory)
C. allowing gases formed during the braking cycle to escape from the disc braking face.

Of course, if they arent bedded in properly, they can crack and shorten the life of the disc, and they are a little noiseier than normal discs.

You're forgetting the most important bit. Grooves and drilled holes lead away heat a lot better than standard discs aswell. Not that it's really needed on a daily driver but it's always something.

 

[Abzynthe]

True

 

[Abzynthe]

Well, apparently theres a heavy package waiting for me at the in laws, so hopefully its my brakes.

Which will help prevent brake fade if under heavy/constant use
