MX-5 Wilwood Big Brake Kit Install - A Bit Of A Faff!
Hello guys, and welcome back to Car Obsession. Following my recent "challenges" with the front brakes on 'Monique' my turbocharged Mk1 Mazda MX-5, I thought it was time to bite the bullet and buy a Wilwood Big Brake Kit from Bofi Racing: https://bofiracing.co.uk/running-gear/brake-friction/big-brake-kits/wilwood-dynalite-one-piece-big-brake-kit-for-mazda-mx-5-na-nb/
Well, what I thought was going to be a relatively quick and simple job but it turned out to be a bit of a scholog. As much as this is not a "How To" guide, I really hope this is helpful, particularly to those that may be experiencing the same issue I was having.
I will concede, there is a lot of talking in this video, but there was a lot of context to what I was doing, why I was doing and the issues I had previously.
