Yeah, i cleaned them and regreased them. But I'm still missing two bearings on one side. It also damaged the plastic, since it was pressed up against the plate without the top on. I'm going to order two new ones and swap them out. I'm pretty good and fast at getting the shock out now that I've...
I'm glad you said that, because when I looked up your part number it made me realize my install is still wrong. I thought just that inner ring with bearings was supposed to come off, now i realize that that entire black part was supposed to stay together on top....doh. Guess i have to open it up...
I was adjusting my camber and ran into another gotcha. I opened up one side to adjust, and was like, "what are these ball bearings doing in here?"
I realized after inspecting the stock camber plates that one of them had the top of this ring stealthily stuck to it.
So, I had to pull the...
I'm with razorlab. It's also possible the brakes weren't bled well from the factory. I flushed mine and switched to Castrol SRF pretty much right away. My pedal feels quite firm. Definitely much firmer than my WRX.
Yeah, I ordered some ball end allens based on the tips here.
The one that wouldn't fit was 6 point, and the one that would was 12 point, so you might be right about that.
The smaller nut goes on before passing through the plate, so that was fine. After passing through, you can't reach the...
Doesn't look concerning to me. Rust after washing rotors is totally normal. I think I had a similar ring pattern when my car was new. I believe it evened out after I started going to the track and actually braking hard. You aren't braking hard enough :)
What aspect of brake performance is...
I just installed the Verus camber plates last night, and I think the directions are missing a couple details. To help anyone else doing this install following those directions, here are a couple additions:
1.) The only thing I didn't have on the tools list was a 27mm socket. I ordered one in...
Not that any of you need convincing, but I'm really impressed with this car's endurance on track. My friend had a Miata rental lined up, and the guy canceled on him 10pm the night before. I shared my car with him. It did 18 sessions over 2 days. 95 degrees out with many sessions back to back to...
You can also display it on the car screen and your phone if you setup AAIDrive. Don't have to fiddle through menus, just open the app. I saved the car screen to one of my programmable buttons.
Mine has sat under the cover for a couple months at a time. Since I don't have a garage, i keep it covered most of the year, but I am taking the cover off weekly during most of the year. I have rarely noticed any moisture building up under the cover, though i have seen some.
Some moisture out...
I've had it about a year and half now, and its working fine. I have not noticed any scratches. I typically only put it on the car after a fresh wash. The only issue I've had is the zipper came apart behind the pull. Took a bit of messing around to reinstall the pull from the top of the zipper...
Another successful roof rack excursion. I got to find out what happens when you crest a hill and come across an escaped horse and have to brake hard with the tires on the roof. Nothing, nothing happened, solid as a rock :)
Glad i brought the rack, as I had to switch wheels between days. I got...
