As per the footer at the end of my posts, I'm not going to mod cesil, I have no plans to mod cesil, definitely keeping it standard.
Already have a highly modified car with the GP, no need for another! So, Tuesday morning I'll be ordering a set of AP brakes for both front and rear ![]() Going for the black calipers as, IMHO, I think the red looks a bit bright. Have red ones on the GP and quite often wish I'd gone for black. Onto backboxes, unsure whether or not to do. If it got changed do I go for normal SuperSprint or Lightweight race? ![]() Scared of making it sound a bit too noisy, have the GP if I wish to numb my ear drums. Like the idea of sharpening the tone up a little without trying to scare old women and their dogs. Hopefully might have a selection to listen to on the 1st June ![]() |

I know what you mean ref the rears, I appreciate they'll be just for show.
However, one thing that pee's me of on the GP is the mis-match of the front and rear brakes but there is sod all I can do about it. AP don't do anything for Mini rear brakes. I can guarantee it'd bug me on cesil so doing the lot. Suspension? Not saying much on that currently, playing politics with the LHSM ![]() If the oem kit gave up the ghost then it would be replaced with coils, until then it can stay. Then again, I said that about the brakes. |

I know the brakes are ££ but, we have to spend our hard earned on something. Birds and booze wouldn't get too good a reception at home ![]() Also, very wary on a droney exhaust. Said earlier somewhere that making a mistake on a Mini exhaust is relatively easy to solve whereas on cesil the cost of said boo boo could be eye watering. Which exhaust are you running currently? |

AP's all round - first class decision Colour - Black is the colour - discretion on the looks I have Red after 2 years of running black, just fancied a change and the black rims option does compliment the post box calipers. SS lightweight race BB is the peoples choice, super sound, welding looks a little friday afternoon. Titanium BB are very high quality but pricey. If money is no option then Dixis,Gruppem are the Titanium front runners. Silverstone will give you a broad overview of exhaust notes. SS Lightweight BB will be in abundance!! Pax rides will be available. |

I've got a one off titanium hand made thing, not as loud as a ss , half the weight and zero drone.
SS is a great sound but the drone got to me ![]() |
