Thanks for the replies guys.
Rich, I will have to get used to the whole car again, so wont be going flat out just yet. I've been reading a lot of posts on the MR2 forums regarding brake upgrades, and the prefered set up is EBC Yellowstuff pads, Stock discs, Goodridge Lines and a flavor of DOT5.1 fluid. My only difference at the moment is the pads so I think it is a good set up to go forward with, Maybe I will shift to the EBC pads for a trial sooner rather than later though if I feel the mintex pads are lacking in braking force.
Thomas, I will have to see if there is space to fit a 60mm air feed on the front of the car. This was my main reason for questioning 2 smaller feeds. As for pictures of the brakes, I don't actually have any, not of the front anyway. I can get some of the rear I think if it would help?
