Looking good mate. Next time with brakes tho don’t use copper grease as it’s crap for brakes as it drys out. What you need to use is a ceramic brake paste. Only couple quid more for a tube off it.
She might be old but not many car makers can say that there electrics last 24 years plus..ALL mine work fm heated mirrors to door and window switches.also having a new windscreen.yes that’s genuine but so so many small chips makes it impossible to drive when it’s raining..it’s like millions of bright stars 🌟 on the screen.I keep getting told why do I keep spending money on this car.I say it’s my choice of car 🤷🤷🤷
I wonder who told you that you need to put grease on the pads? especially copper grease and in such quantity? you don’t need to smear any lubricant on the brakes, you need to take care of the brakes, you need to wash the brakes, a special liquid is sold that smells like gasoline, although they need to be puffed every few months. and ideally it is to wash the brakes with a wheel cleaner. The only place you should use lube on the brakes is the brake guides and that's it, you can lubricate the back of the pad with a thin thin layer of ceramic lube. but not like chocolate on bread. sands and stones will gather in you and then the pad will be constantly pressed against the disc, and plus not evenly press on the brake. so if you don't want the brakes to squeak or rattle. then just take care of the brakes, wash them off at least 2 times a year, and change the lubricant in the guides for one, then the brakes will always be effective, the brake discs will last a long time. it seems to us that once a lot of lubricant was applied, and expensive brakes were installed, then until the pads and discs are worn out, they do not need to be taken care of at all. every couple of months I carefully wash the brakes on my car, so to speak, completely wash off the brake dust. and plus every 4-6 months I change the lubricants in the guides. although I drive fast, I use the brakes intensively, the brakes are always clean and effective.
@@BamMotors hi i would like to ask about the quality of these brake discs. How have they proven themselves? do they not overheat if you stop the car several times in a row from a speed of 150+? can you rate them? I want perforated rims, but Brembo's are very expensive. and in general lately very bad reviews for Brembo. perforated ones have less area for contact with the pads. but on the other hand, perforated disks at high temperatures, gases resist compression less. Well, they look better.
@@timbradoundwasserschlagerd7329 These brake disc have been perfect for what I’ve need them for daily driving, as for stopping from 150mph+ I can’t say I’ve that fast on the roads in the Uk to test them sorry!
@@BamMotors When I am alone, I drive 160+. Therefore, it is important that they are of good quality. perforated discs betray a very beautiful look of the car. and plus perforated ones are good because the pressure that forms at high temperature comes out through the holes, and the pads can compress the disc. and the notches remove the burnt layer from the pads, making the pads as efficient as possible. but this is of no use if the discs are of poor quality. then the perforated ones fail many times faster. I know that English brake discs and pads from EBC are very good, but they are very expensive, for my car, front discs with pads cost + - 350-500 euros.
