Nice idea and good move that you changed the tie rod

I would forget the slotted rotors and check your Brake Pads and also check your tyres first :wink:

Tyres are great. Lots of traction when needed, can throw it around roundabouts without it even sliding slightly. I have more issues with me staying in the seat.

I checked the brake pads when I had the wheels off, they look pretty meaty. BUT, if I get new rotors, I will change the pads anyways.

The steering rack on that car is from the original car...
the rest of the suspension is from the later car.
