| JCW Brakes with uprated discs (drilled and grooved) from MODNMINI Last Saturday MODNMINI fitted my MCS with JCW brakes + grooved and drilled discs + 5.1 brake fluid + JCW race pads all round. I’ve been thinking about upgrading my MCS brakes for sometime but I was not keen on fitting spacers required for most big brake kits hence the decision to go JCW + a strong recommendation from John at MODNMINI. My brakes are still bedding in but I have noticed a marked improvement in stopping power over standard and more importantly improved peddle feel after initial application; there does seems to be a slightly softer pedal feel initially but this is quickly followed by a lot better bite and associated feel. John and Neil at MODNMINI have been great to deal with and I’d highly recommend them  Some pics:   GTT, GRS, Janspeed, JCW, OMP + various other bits - 232.6bhp, 191.2lbft on 1320's rolling road Last edited by MINIAC; Mar 30th, 2008 at 03:40 PM.

| They look great and the I love the Pro Race 2's  . I am a bit worried that the rears look tiny behind those wheels though.  Some people are like a Slinky ........ not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs |

| They do look a bit small compared to the fronts but that was always the case; just more so now  The backs have been colour coded red also  GTT, GRS, Janspeed, JCW, OMP + various other bits - 232.6bhp, 191.2lbft on 1320's rolling road |

 Quick update, brakes are now bedded in and can be best described as spot on so much better than stock. GTT, GRS, Janspeed, JCW, OMP + various other bits - 232.6bhp, 191.2lbft on 1320's rolling road |

| I've ordered JCW capliers and I'm planning to go for Tar-ox disks, and green stuff pads as they work out nearly the same price as JCW disks and pads. http://www.mini2.com/forum/vecchio-e...s-1st-gen.html  |
