What brakes did you use for the front conversation DD.
I'm looking at getting another Freelander and fancy brakes closer to those on my D3.
Nice work so far.

Discs are off a Chrysler 300c. Lots of sizes for them. I've had to use spigot rings in them but can't see it being a problem. Calipers are hispec four pots. Front brackets were fairly easy to make. Used 10mm steel angle. Not racing spec but it's a freelander. Fronts all in owe me about £150

Personally, I'd swap the wheels+nudge bar (the rubber ones look a bit... naff, IMO)
After that, get yourself a 2kOhm variable resistor, some SDi injectors, and a turbo from a Rover 25/45/MGZR/MGZS (swap the turbine housings over, so it'll fit the hippo)
Will have you floating up around the 140-150Bhp mark, for minimal effort
Can anyone tell me where to fit the 2kOhm variable resistor ?
Thank you
