I've been down there and met them. Small operation but *very* knowledgeable and couldn't have helped me more -- and all just for a set of ATE calipers...
Deffo recommend them. They did a 2.0 16v conversion of someone's on here I think -- female, lives in Kent? Can't remember the name...
all round

Great little company, most of the cars they have on their website are either my friends or friends of theirs. If you want me to put you in contact with one or two of them so you can ask them first hand what the conversions are like, just give me a shout and ill sort it.
Would deffo get my conversion here as this is what they enjoy doing the most. If any of them had any problems with their conversions etc, it has never been down to the work that was carried out.
My mate who has the white mrk 2 Astra GTE turbo on the website is doing 1/4 mile in 13.4's at the moment, which aint bad.
if you need any work done, get some quotes, tell Vtunning what you were quoted and they will probably beat them all. That's what i do anyway.

Just had a look at their web site, I think I might get their 284mm brake kit, looks funky!
Don't suppose anyone has a pic of these size brakes sitting behind 15" wheels?
