i had those brakes...(in D2 form) on my AE111...i didnt find them to be good...nice strong pedal but they overheated very quick and i managed to warp the 330mm vented discs...and the ae111's are light cars aswell...mine was under 1000kg's...they looked impressive but i wouldnt rate them...the ksport and d2 brakes and coilovers are identical by the way...made in the same factory..

show us the full picture? big discs and lil pads aint gonna mix - pads would hold too much heat hence warpin. thats why some peeps crack discs - thrash the life out the pads and dont change them

[Gar_vRS]

here ye go...i had put ferodo DS pads on it as the standard ones were crap but they just heated up more and faded badly...

ah that was my second ae111...had one before and sold it and bought and octavia vRS...then sold that to buy the second one...it had a huge spec list on it...it was a 98 and i sold it for 10000 euro...but they can be gotten much cheaper...

the Runx is a TRD m sport...very rare....had it on track on thursday and performed really well...so im going to order some more parts before the next one in june...here's some pics of it on track on thursday...

yup thats the one...one of the southern ireland car clubs orgenaised a private trackday...was a great day.

the runx is just the jdm corolla...same engine and 6 speed gearbox as the corolla...few different things like the dials and stuff...mine is a TRD m-sport though...comes with TRD sportivo suspension, TRD rear anti-roll bar, TRD/Rays wheels, Xenon's, TRD exhaust, factory fitted bodykit consisting opf the front lip, sideskirts, rear spatz and roof spoler, and they did something witht he engine...it has 15ps more than the standard engines...which you can tell by the vvtL-i on the engine cover is in red instead of silver... :D
