Krzys Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I've had fronts bind before, least she's not the daily any more so you can spend a bit of time sorting it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to put cold water on the pass side to cool it down then had it off and gave it good clean put it back on .then off for a 350 mile trip to weeeeeeeeee bony Scotland the next day she was fine for about 3000 miles before the prob came back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 Yeah, glad she's not a daily now or I'd be going daft trying to get her fixed! lol Upgrade might be a good idea, was thinking EBC discs and pads, caliper wise probably new from Honda, or might go for an upgrade. Have to watch though, as most involve going up a wheel size. Mind you, a nice set of 16 inch chronos would be nice, just hard to find em! Not keen on the brand new chronos though, as speedline changed the style of them slightly, added wee bits to them and I think it's spoiled the clean look of them. Then again could always go for Rota grids! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I seem to have missed a lot of updates here. Still looking good tho!Shame you've got issues but least it's wear and tear items. So its not the cars fault! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you upgrade the calipers I'm pretty sure there won't be any room to fit 15's on, it's tight in there as it is. 16" chronos are one of the best wheels for these cars (I'm ever so slightly biased though), the SW98's in gunmetal are a good alternative though, check Krzys's old MB6.

Krzys Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I keep thinking about 16" Chrono's for the VTi-S, your fault Nick Or some grids in bronze or gunmetal!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Defo 15s are tight I had to grind my calipers down just to get wheel weights inside the rim as I didn't want them showing in the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakey135 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Shame about the brakes! Least you encountered the fault whilst on a jolly rather than NEEDING to get somewhere!Maybe a good reason to enquire about an MTEC group buy! Hint hint lool!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
