    Rear coupe strut for design of a working mono block system

    As per title if any one has one, i am not looking to spend £££ but beer money if fine.

    I would like to design a carrier and working solution to the OEM hand brake to work together with a mono block.

    There is a company that do this alas not very well from what i have heard and if you want to trust your money there thats another story.

    Many thanks James

      Hi Spec or BG Developments could probably sort this out quite easily.

      Is there much difference in the caliper mounting points between the front and rear of the S2's struts?

        Spot calipers are the way to go dude. http://wilwood.carshopinc.com/produc...57383/120-2280 Sorta like this, reckon you could space it to work with a thicker disc too. Look really trick, mate used them on his porker and had monster brakes on rear. These did the mechanical handbrake bit.

                a drum style handbrake setup is ideal i think.

                looked at this for abit too and in the end took the 280mm upgrade from pete based on pauls setup.
