Due to my old 350 melting the grease in the UJ's next to the discs one track day, is there any benefit to using high temp grease on the UJ's? A lot of smoke and worry until the reason was detected, melted grease running onto hot discs and burning off (or I don't touch the brakes, erk).

I've rigged up some cooling ducts for the rear discs (Mini fresh air ducting) and these have definitly helped when pressing on.

I think Tower View do these too.

Where are the inlets? Any bodywork to re-arrange?

Will also look at Tower View web site.

When I get the car back from the bodyshop, I'll take some piccies, and Mike can bung em on his web-site, but there were no body mods as the intakes are under the car and it is all very simple and just ty-wrapped in place.
