Alex's Gold LET Astra

[vauxhall_astra]

Those calipers are bigger than my engine

 

[Jaspa]

what size are the new brakes?....also didnt know whiteline did an ARB for the mk3?

 

[Alex]

New brakes are 310mm, so not much bigger but has new discs on them

Yeah Whiteline used to make them, they don't anymore though

 

[big e]

Nice kit there Alex..

 

[DavebGsi]

very nice. I am wondering if another rear arb can be retro fitted. Someone on here was tryin to do it a while ago. Did you get that off that red mk3 with the grey rally style wheels on it?

Yeah that's where it came from

 

[Alex]

Latest buy turned up a couple of days ago, got these for a really good price, rear calipers have just been reconditioned as well.

 

[reno]

oooosh you have got some serious stopping power all round

 

[Andy_Mk3]

You going for a hydraulic handbrake then?

 

[DavebGsi]

if so he can't drive his car on the road ever again!

 

[Jordan_turbo]

You going for a hydraulic handbrake then?

They look to me like the bells with intergrated handbrake liners for the standard One, bloody rare!

 

[Alex]

Nope, the discs come with standard reconditioned calipers. So handbrake will be the same

 

[DavebGsi]

hard to tell from the pic! need some side on pictures alex!

You are correct they are designed for the integrated handbrake.

hard to tell from the pic! need some side on pictures alex!

Will get some other pics tomorrow

 

[Andy_Mk3]

Ahhhh I see now good buy there then!

 

[Alex]

Yep, only ever seen one other setup similar to this for sale before. And the price I paid was an absolute bargain

 

[DavebGsi]

who they made by?

 

[Alex]

Not 100% sure tbh, the quality of them is fantastic though, will see if I can find any branding on them

 

[Alex]

Well the shell was picked up today. So this is the end of my LET Astra.
