Show me your BBKs!
Well, there's a few threads on here of "show me your ..." So I figured i'd add another one where the fine folks here can show off their big brake kits. Enjoy! (???)

Texas Speedwerks BBK. Not the greatest picture, so when I get the Mini back from Custom Mini Shop I'll post a better shot.

It's awesome - completely "night & day" from my Ireland BBK. On spirited drives through the hills, I have zero fade & the brakes keep getting better the more you use em'. **Highly** recommended.

ST Kit.
But i'm going to take this chance and say something: If I knew then what i knew now I'd buy from Todd@TCE. The ST kit is just too big to fit the majority of wheels and Todd could have accomplished the same performance without the added hassle. I just got my ST's used for 1k. So ahh.... Another +1 for Todd.

Yeah I've got my eye on TCE Wilwoods--by the end of the year I'll have a set too, lol. Just hope they will fit my 17" Flik Bullets without spacers.
