In response to this
http://www.rdabrakes.com.au/downloads/bulletin2.pdf Does anyone know the recommended torque for wheel nuts on AU1, may be an issue or not but if I have the tools at home while I am fitting new rotors and pads I may as well get it correct

Doing wheel nuts up with a torque wrench is getting a little carried away I think. |
