Finally got the brakes fitted yesterday.
Have to let them settle in, but braking power seems VERY good. This is just a rough phone pic. I'll take better pics later. A couple of hassles. The Wilwood fittings are a little odd, so will take a little longer to get ADR compliant braided hoses made up (currently has the US hoses fitted). The rotors are so big that we're getting a fouling problem against the ball joint at full lock. TCE Performance in Arizona are sending out a spacer shim to help sit the rotor a little further out which will (hopefully) solve the problem. I should add, great service from the guys at HiTek Brakes in Moorabbin. I'll take better pics later, and impressions once I've had a real chance to drive it
