It has some sort of aftermarket brakes on but think there's just drilled and  Groved... Having trouble finding out what parts and makes of parts are on this is the first modified car iv brought normally I buy standard and mod :-)

This is the engine bay



But I do have a feeling fuel pump taping a little to much so that is first on my list what do you guys think..?

mild tapping/ticking noise on these engines during idle is normal.

Seems Abit more than mild to me though, but I have done Abit of research and a lot of people seem to think it's normal just worries me ha

It sounds like EBC Turbo Groove discs. Take a closer picture of your bakes, I may be able to identify them.  :happy2:
