Brembos - GTR or not???
I'm after a bit of help. I bought some brembos which were believed to be R33 GTR but a believe they might be from something else as they look slightly different. Could be from a R34 or something maybe. Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone knows. The reasons I'm asking: -I think they look slightly different. -The larger of the piston dust which seem consistent with info i find online dust covers didn't fit (about 1-2mm too big for the bit they fit into. I want to know if they'll fit before I waste time, but I'm struggling to find the distance between the brake caliper location bolts. Any help would be brilliant:

My Soulmate Bill has passed away
I knew Bill and met him several times. A real class act. Great man to talk to and he'd always take the time to listen and strike up conversations. Trish, I know I spoke to you last week but again, I'm really sorry about the sad news. I didn't post it on here as I felt it'd be best to leave to you in your own time. You know where I am if you need to talk. Would you also pass on my thoughts to Chewy please more sad news on his family too.

Looking where your finger is, is it's the horizontal black pipe, that would be the pipe at the front of the fuel rail. Might need the fuel clamps tightening a litte

Thanks Andrew, I was just looking at some old photos of Mac1's, PaulG and a couple of other wide arch cars. I'm thinking I might try and make some lights

Thanks mate, So in short, you used the 2 end bolts that were still there then used some sealant along the bottom?

Tint the lower chambers what colour? Or just darken them a little.? TBH, I've got loads of sets of lights, might even have some I did already. The problem is what Jeff and funky mentioned above, the bits the lights would bolt to have been cut out. So I'd possibly have to weld bits in.

Did you just cut some out of a breaker and weld back in?

You were correct. The usual light bits aren't there sadly. I guess i could make something nice maybe

Thanks very much mate. So it'll be circa £164 for them needing 4. I wonder how easy it would be to find replacement lenses as you suggested and maybe change to clear ones

True, and I can probably have it done for free too since my best mate does it.
