Is200se Brake Query

[BillyAckers]

***Extreme Newbie to the site so PLEASE go easy !!!***

I have recently purchased some new pads for all round my 02 plate is200se. I have read the instructions posted under the 'knowledge' section of the group and many thanks to those who have offered their advice.

I have done many brake pads, disc, caliper etc changes on everything from a mini to a porsche in the past but want to make sure I aint gonna boo boo my precious lexus !!!!

I opened the box of replacement parts today and to my surprise I have one box complete with what I class as 'normal' sized pads and a smaller box containing 4x 'small' or half size ?? pads ???

I havent yet dropped the wheels off so I may be asking a totally dumb Q here ... but do I have the right parts !!!

Any help gratefully received

Yours brakingly virginal !!!

yes mate you have the right parts, if you have done other cars thay are very easy to change. ;)

[ColinBarber]

Welcome :)

Sounds like you have the right bits, the rear brakes aren't that big

Large= front

Small= Rear

welcome

[BillyAckers]

WOW

Im gob smacked with your responses... not because I have the right parts, but because a) I got a resaponse and B) everyone seems friendly !!!!

Thanks for the invite to the get together, however I am already booked out that night. Wouldve been good though.

Im gonna paint the calipers whilst I have the wheels off... I have read on the forums that Hammerite seems ok to use, however, where can I buy the caliper stickers from ???

Thanks

Billy

When painting the calipers you need Hammerite "smooth"..

unless you want your brakes to look like they have been hit all over with a hammer :P

Ok thanks for the sticker advice and all the feedback. Currently in London and wont be back in time for the meet. Always next time !

I will ensure I use 'Smooth' Hammerite.... gonna give the fluorescent green a miss though !!!

Hi,

I wish to buy a set of caliper stickers too.

My questions is : does the price (10 pound/$15,US dollar I assume)including postage worldwide?

b/c I am in Australia.
