Carcked Rotors !

This rotor came off my 87 Formula ,never seen a rotor in this condition ,the one on the other side is the same way . I only got this car for $300 ,and now I can see all they did to it for the 2 years they had it was drive ,and put gas in it . It's starting to be a never ending money pit on wheels ! But hey what the hell I'll slowly nurse her back to health !

Now that Spohn carries the 1LE brackets, you might want to think about going that route seeing you have to replace parts anyway. Just a thought.

Yes, I can second that opinion. Go for the 1LE's while you have the whole thing apart. It's well woth the money.

I don't know , $850 is a little more then I want to spend at the moment . I also have to replace tie rods , ball joints, springs, struts , basiclly I have to do a whole frontend rebuild . In the future I am gonna be looking into better brakes ,either the 1LE or maybe BAER brakes . Just have so many other things to replace on this car , Over the next year or so I'll probably be working on the car more then driving it !!!
