Stop Censorship
The Music and Movie industries attempt to disable the internet and truncate your freedom of speech using US legislation nicknamed SOPA, PIPA and as of April 2012, CISPA.
ACTA is just as bad (perhaps worse) and and an attempt is in progress to get it approved by governments all over the world.
The DMCA law in the US is equally bad and was written by the same industries but I don't document the law or its bad effects on the world's people here.
See my censorship web page with its links to more information on how vital it is to stop PIPA, SOPA, and ACTA.

Front Brakes

Back to europa page

I am using the Zender front brake racing caliper kit. These are Wilwood calipers mounted on a CNC machined aluminum mount (which in turn bolts to the standard upright). The disk itself is larger than stock and is thicker and vented. Though the disk is heavier than stock and the mount is very slightly heavier than the stock steel mount the Wilwood calipers are so much lighter than the stock calipers (which weigh 8 pounds!) that it is lighter than stock overall.

The slight cutaway on the caliper was for the Brand Lotus stock wheels and not needed for the Panasport wheels in use.

Here we show the disk mounting bracket.

Finally, we show the disk mounted (via an aluminum adapter) to the stock cast iron stock hub.
