just a quick update..... the calais went in for a rwc last week, only things needed fixing was the sticky left caliper(ended up changing my brakes to vlt calipers with dba gold series rotors with bendix pads and also fitted a 1in master cyl) and the handbrake needed adjusting... so fixed all of that yesty and its booked in for the final inspection tomorrow morning... will be rego'd straight after the inspection....

heres a pic of the brakes i fitted..
