Engine flush(not a fan but the thing was just so dirty)Oil & filter, new coils, fuel filter, rotors, pads, braided lines and full flush and bleed with motul 600.

Fronts were a breeze, rears were the usual pain. WD40 soak over night and much hammering required, handbrake backed right off.

Its early days but I cant believe how good the t3's, a1rm pads and braided lines feel over stock. It really is worth the extra coin even with stock brakes. Really was not expecting such a dramatic improvement. Will see how they go when properly abused though....

Also feels heaps better with new coils, been chasing its feeling crapyness for a while, I wish there was an easy way to diagnose coils. I wasn't keen to just have a guess but had pretty much eliminated everything else. Idle is almost smooth, almost...it is an fg, and just feels like it has its mojo back. I was logging 50 od misfires in like a 45 min drive and seems all good now, 0 in a 20min drive. Not sure if that's a definitive way to tell coils are stuffed though.

Fark I need a hoist but my knees need a rebuild. Also need beer

Would highly recommended to anybody and I haven't even finished the 300km bed in. Tiny bit of squeal on a couple of medium applications during initial bed in, then silence. Haven't given them a proper workout yet but it's obvious how much better they are. Cant imagine how big brakes feel over stock.

I get the feeling the a1's are going to be harsh on the rotors though. Just by how much they marked the rotor just rotating it by hand(fkn around adjusting hand brake).
