Had the skrik of my life last night I knew this was gonna happened just didnt think it would so early . got the car back from Worcester with new turbo inn , take it away for a full wash alles wat mal is get the car and the car feeling real strong , decide to boost it down the road on the corner by sasol , next thing I know the rear wheels lock up when I press brakes and car swings right around into a 360deg spin twice eventually ended up on the neighbours garden messing up his whole garden. Damage to car custom front bumper and skirt broken and lucky the super hard velocitys saved my rim but my alighnment was out and cooler totally dented . got car towed to waleed this morning to see why brakes up locked up . alot of water was found in my rear brake drums on the left hand side and thats not good anyways all being sorted with new cooler and bumper now only crap part the paint is 650+ alitre and I need the paint.  car will defnitley be getting a set of coily end of the year F-series not ayoba _________________ Race car : 200is Turbo 200.3kw and 405nm  KILLER  .

No bra! You cant have drums and your pushing so much power! Get the IS or IE rear disk kit and fit powerbrakes upfront but I dont think the 256 is gona cut it!
