It was injected from someone elses comment when I mentioned what I was going to do to solve my problem. Even if the stock rotors were completely fine I would be swapping to something else that was actually coated to prevent rust from falling out of the rotors and coating my wheels. Sorry you...

I didnt ask for help lol. If I needed help I would have asked for help. I simply stated that I had issues with the brakes and then got comments that there is nothing wrong with them, which obviously isnt helpful. Ill most likely be at NJMP at some point this year a few times. Still need to use...

I don’t think 265s would rub as long as you aren’t slammed. I’m just ever so slightly rubbing now on the 275 which is really a 285. But again I’m not slammed, only lowed by about a half inch or so.

I wouldn’t describe this as “spirited” driving. The tail specifically but also surrounding roads are very brake heavy especially when on the down hill sides. Most of the roads aren’t fast enough or give significant time off the brakes to cool them properly. There were multiple cars with ruined...

Maybe I have a soft set of rotors. In any case they are no longer any good. Doesn’t matter as I’m not going to replace them with OEM and risk the exact same issue happening. I’ve done track days, racing, and instructing for almost a decade now. I’m not about to get into an argument about how I...

I have zero desire to save money on something as critical as my brakes. I’ve had brakes fail before at triple digit speeds. I assure you that it’s not entertaining. My life and fellow track drivers lives are worth more then 2k. If I buy the same rotors the same result is going to happen. Even...

HKS lowering springs. I’m only lowered about a half inch from stock height. Once I get to a proper track I’ll decide on if I need coils or not.

You cant just put pads on torched rotors, the rotors are ruined. They could probably be cut but that removes heat capacity. The rotors are crappy metal, they are not coated, and throw rust everywhere from inside the cooling vanes. They have also worn significantly from just one aggressive week...

Absolutely it is but after years of constantly swapping tires around on race bikes I just want one set for everything and be done with it. Im going to go with a Racing Brake rotor kit as well as CSG pads because im not impressed with the stock rotors in several ways. BBK is not needed for my...

Just returned from my trip down to NC/TN and I figured I should type a few things about these tires. Im running 275/35 and 295/35. These tires run large and are basically like running 285/305. I am getting rubbing front and rear on the top of the fender during heavy braking and acceleration...

Im not sure its fair to call this transmissions fragile. It holds almost double the stock power which is pretty reasonable. Its also the same trans in the hellcat and other high performance cars just with slightly different clutch materials and stacks. It probably wont hold much more power, if...

Visconti is easy to deal with. Just give them a shout and they well take care of you.

If you are a "senior manager" in supply chains how can you not understand JIT? If they are that squeezed on parts. Removing allocations could cause the entire assembly line to have to pause. Its clear you have no idea what you're talking about. Im done responding here.

Parts do not exist for anything, used, new, nothing. The warranty has nothing to do with anything. Keep moving the goal posts to try and make your argument make sense. If that helps you sleep at night you do you. Call wreckers and find the part, bring it to toyota and have them install it. If...

So only the CA ports are backed up? My dude there are dozens of ships sitting out at sea and I can see them from my house off the coast of Long Island. Every port is screwed. BMW halted production in Austria: https://www.motor1.com/news/573048/bmw-z4-production-pause/ Im not sticking up for...

Because the adapter isnt all the way down the stress could have caused a bit of wiggle at the top of the adapter. The top of the adapter has very little clearance with the strut piston itself. What Im saying is make sure there is no scoring of that piston because if there is the seal will fail...

That is absolutely fucked. This could have caused suspension failure and a massive accident. They are lucky you asked for it to be as low as possible. Higher settings would have had a stronger lever action on the coil adapter. I wouldnt let them assemble a set of spoons after they did that to a...

Entitlement begins with being able to buy a 60k car. Then complain a part is out of stock when there are hundreds of ships sitting out at sea waiting for port space pushes it into being a brat. The entire planet is fucked with shipping and logistics issues. Maybe ignorance is bliss in your...

Covers largely do more damage then they protect. Especially if used outside. Indoor soft covers should only be used if the car is cleaned immediately before putting the cover on. If the car is even slightly dirty the cover will act like sand paper against the paint. For winter storage I use a...

Hes an engineer... Versions are used :p
