    I was going to put brembo in black but the stickers I got were a little small and the 2nd set I ordered never came, now I'm thinking of doing the outline of the Ve style ss badge

    Re: VE Brembo rears

    Guys
    There is one thing you need to do before fitting the rears

    You need to swap the nipples with the crossover tube. Basically, you need to remove the nipples, unscrew the crossover tube and then reverse it. With the VE, the crossover tube needs to be the same side as the small piston. The small piston the one the rotor hits first in rotation.

    See this pic

    This is how your rotor should have arrived. See how the nipples are the same side as the small piston? The crossover tube needs to be where those nipples are. Also, when you change the crossover tube, you need to make sure the rubber tube sits against the calliper. This will make sense when you try and fit the tube on.

    Be sure not to cross thread anything. To get the crossover tube off, use a z10mm flare nut spanner. To get the nipples off, I used a 11mm socket. Make sure everything is done up tight but make sure you can get the nipples undone when bleeding

    Any questions let me know

    Also here is some pics of the items you get. Anybody want them let me know
