Default finished legend brake upgrade

had this done on my ek4 vti (99 si for you guys) a week ago so just been beddin it in for a week. what a difference. stoppin distnace reduced by loads. abs feels way better. no where near as much pulsatin/vibratin felt compared to oem brakes. also when abs kick in car is lot easier to control wheras before when brakin hard from 70-100 mph car would be be pullin to left and right.

anyway all fitted perfect, no moddin work needed at all, used the followin

*94 3.2 v6 legend calipers (twin pot)
*goodridge s/s lines all round
*282 mm discs (of mg zs 180) - dont think you guys get this car over there but the discs just bolt on like they are oem
* axxis mm pads
* super 4.1 fluid

Legend brakes are honda OEM parts.
