  1. hi i have never heard of machining rotors wrong making a grinding noise u should check any metal clips or squeal shims to see if there touching the rotor. have u checked ur rear pads???
  2. i was just replacing my brake pads on the front of my e34 when i noticed the hose was spit on the one side i thought to myself what a good excuse to get some braded ones made up i went to see the guys at poirua brake and clutch. I spoke to a guy called keith who said he would make them up for me and that they come certed so no hasstles on getting a cert once fitted. I got them for a tidy sum of $70.00 a side i thought it was a good price and they made a real nice job. Anyone thinking of upgrading to braided hoses in the wellington area go see keith top job. il get some pics up soon
