That's my ideal..

What it'll end up as will be a very scaled down version probably

Stripped interior and rollcage depends on whether missus passes her test and gets a car.

You won't be needing those front brakes if you're occasionally running 16s either?

Realised that after typing..

Didn't think anyone would notice them though. Will probably stick to 300mm 4 pots. A lot cheaper as well.

Wouldn't waste your money on anything other than an F28. It easily handles that sort of power on mine...

And the rear brakes, have you ever driven a car with normal discs on the back, let alone massive ones? Do you like the back end locking up under heavy braking? Hope your good at handling going sideways!

Your car with 300mm rear discs will of had millions of pounds spent developing them, not be as light at the back, or have such a front heavy bias with weight distribution!

Fronts are 305mm, thought rears were 300, but thinking maybe they are 285mm. No smaller than that though.
