hello this mod, is to use the brake disk hub: http://www.davesmotors.com/s.nl/c.885035/n.1/it.A/id.428/.f
of the drop, in the tb2, drilling it at 16mm fits perfectly in the drive stubs.
then with the disks exposy and with the dremel, I made the hexagon of the disk hub of the drop, it is a durable control and without problems.regards.

Great mod:excited: How does it compare with original disc set up for braking?

I have found the std ones work good once you adjust up the pads but do not lock the wheels which is also good but I can't seem to get the rears to pull up more than the fronts. So I have some 2mm carbon fiber plate to make some disc pads from.

Forgot to say love ya rear brace

hello the combination carbon fiber/metal pads or expoxi disk/metal pads, in my opinion,are the best thing, this way I forget to revise the brakes, the brakes pads for metal disks,they usually become unstuck, and they also need of a lot of maintenance.
the rear brace is homemade:good idea:,I built them after it broke a differential alloy box, with those rear brace,the rear shock tower, doesn't make so much force,on the differential box.
I mark in red for where it broke,the box after a jump.best regards
