pearcesnr When are we going to see 1 of the 69 sedans on the road again?
ps when are you next racing the sports sedan?

Does anyone know what kind of steel is used in brake rotors. Cause I'm sure if you could get the right sort of steel and the right size an engineering shop could make areplacement rotor as per the original specs

Bellett.Boys I don't know about brands, but my feeling is that if you use a gas shock there will be less oil cavitation in the shock allowing you to use a softer shock as the non gas filled shocks are made harder so that when the hydraulic fluid gets aerated through use they soften up.
