I have been contacted by a fellow Oz Bueller.
He has a S1 1995 . Front forks White Power, Brake calliper PM. He wants to install a Nissan calliper.
What does he need to change other than the calliper.
Approx cost in US of said calliper?
Approx cost of new Disk to fit ?
E-mail me direct on weston@senet.com.au
Thanks in advance

Paul I'm not sure if this is totally correct but I believe the master cylinder was altered, piston and bore size, on later S1's. Something to do with customers not liking the very sharp action of the earlier brake. Me personally, I loved it.

This is not to say it need be changed also though.

PS. congrat's on the Team Elves promotion.

Nissin it is. Nissan it is called, even in some ads.

I am waiting for the guy to contact me again to confirm his information.
He said he has old style disk and calliper and wants to upgrade to 99 - 2001 due to better performance on
track, a set of pads is only lasting one day at tack and the end up shapped like wedges.

Rocket of what do you speak

Paul if you are asking about the brakes , Battle 2win, vol 1, issue 4, pg 62. Perhaps someone can put it up here.

Or are you referring to your promotion (in the kitchen)?
