      I am not sure how your braking tests where done but I was thinking that it might be quite possible that those brakes weren't seasoned/bedded and that would most definately give you a poor braking feel. You might have broken them in beforehand and maybe they were still poor after that, I don't know, just a thought. The quality does seem to look good on the Alston clip though, however I think I read it as having room for 225 mm tires in stock fenderwells though, maybe not but that is what it alludes to on the website.

      I'm way late and & more than $1 short here but...

      I can't read all the posts do to a lack of time, but if it hasn't been mentioned yet, here's my problem with "quantifying" change. It's been SOOOOOOooooooo long since I've even had a seat in my car, much less driven it, that my change to a WD sub-frame will be nearly impossible for me to offer even a seat of the pant's impression. On top of that, the car has had such a copious amount of significant modification that it really won't even be the same animal anymore, I don't imagine. At this point really it will be the greatest pleasure to just see the damn thing in one cohesive piece, get in it, crank it, and stomp the go peddle and hear it, feel it, and smell it! I don't think I'll really care much about how MUCH better each individual system/component might be, but OVERALL the car will be world's above what I started with and a complete restification, done the best I could afford to do even if I couldn't do the work myself (which hurts).
