Mod Update
Well eventualy got around to getting some (poor) pictures of the car with some new mods.
I have jusr fitted the following mods. 1. BMW CCD callipers and DS2500 pads alround and M2 Comp upgrade disces 2. Eventuri induction kit. 3. Carbon engine cover (adds 75bhp). Eventuri sounds great and the quality is as you would expect for the price. So pleased with the brakes as direct plug and play and although only just bedded in the initail feel is far better than the OEM ones IMOP. hoping to get the down pipes fitetd soon and possibly looking to get the Litchfiefd stage 1 map and the CC fix for peice of mind.

Looks good!
I think I'm going to go down the BBK route. Standard ones with track pads are fine, but ultimately these cars are fast and heavy, so the more braking performance you get the better, if it's going on track. Does the air box do anything other than change the noise?

Practically speaking, when actually driving on a road, they've been tested & showed a decrease in power compared to stock intakes. Not by much though. And they do sound so good.

I am pleased with it personnaly as said great quality and easy to fit. I will be intrested to see if and what the power gains are but with 450 I am sure its exremily marginal if honest. Ref the brakes I managed to get the calipers from ebay at 1k and then the discs and larger protection plates from BMW cost me £1300 and anothe £550 for the DS2500 pads fr/rear. As mentioned I was going to go for AP but wanted to keep as OEM as possible. hope this helps, Jamie

i changed the discs and callipers all round. Rear callipers are as large as the fronts OEM's (Nissan GTR Pad size). Discs are the upgraded 400mm M2 Comp OEM ones. Noticable larger on the rear with more cooling viens/space from disc surface to bell.
