You stil need thw caliper mounting brackets, DIscs and mounting bells aswell, which is why they cost about £700 altogether from z-cars or MRA minis

inimum disc diameter is 240mm acording to spec listed, Largest mini disc is 213mm but as said you wont gain anything really by using mini discs as it is only the pad area which is a bit bigger, you need a bigger disc size to have a big improvement in brake power to make all your efforts of messing around worthwhile?
You may aswell buy a KAD set if your gonna use mini discs.

You could put vented disks and metro four pots on the mini hubs. The rear of the z-cars kit is designed to match the track of metro vented disks and hubs so I'd use them. I have a spare set of grooved, vented disks to sell and perhaps some metro hubs with new bearings if I can find them. If interested PM me

i chose the digi dash on mine it has every thing on it gears,revs,speedo,ot,op,wt,speed,total miles,hours run,fuel level and 0 to 60 timers the rev counter and change lights look nice but the problem i have is seeing the thing two many small screens on display at once and you have to reach across to select menus.
no good with 5 point harness. The stack looks more visable. And their all expensive.

I have fitted a stack tacho which does the RPM, speed, odometer, 1/4 mile/0-60 times etc but i havnt opted to use the addition displays as you cant see the speed etc whilst keeping an eye on oil ans water etc so i chose the racetech gauge which has oil pressure and water temp in one gauge and the pair of gauges cost under £500 as the stack only become really expensive when you need the stack sensors and addition wiring harness which cost's more than the racetech gauge alone.

Having this setup allows me to view alll the important infomation without having to press buttons on the dash and they are posistioned so they are all in view with the a quick glance.

Veypor motorcycle intelligence unit- does everything- speed, tacho, shift light, lateral g, 0-60, 1/4mile, data logger, total miles/hours, gear indicator etc, etc. Costs about £250. Can't fault it.
