It works ok but only just went through the IVA, you need to set the caliper just right & get them bedded in, my examiner took my car into the car park & drove it round with the hand brake on to get some heat into them! They passed. You are allowed a little drag on the brakes! It's well worth having a bit of drag on them. There is an adjustment screw on the inside face of the caliper, you need to use these to get the piston sitting in the right place. Hope this helps.

Thanks for that, I've managed to get my brackets bent and I'm realistically happy with them, found the adjuster and going to tweek it once the pipes and fluid is in. I only have to get the cable secured now
