Yea, I bought one just for this. Next thing I am looking for is a way to disable the EDC stuff so the cancellers won't be needed
Unfortunately no, bimmercode doesn't have the capability.
Okay you aren't THAT far off with the iron and we are about the same mileage on the car. I guess maybe these b58's take awhile to break in fully.
I'll do another oil test before I really freak out lol.
So the last two oil changes in the Supra I noticed some shimmery oil, but nothing in the oil filter when I cut it open. I was thinking maybe it was from breaking in but this last change was at 6,000 miles, and the car has 16 track days on it now. So I decided to do an oil test.
Good news is all...
No idea. Weigh a set when you refresh them!
Looks like the OEM rotors from FCP aren't much more. Although it looks like the part numbers are the same so maybe they are OEM? Do you have the little dimples in the sides of the hat like in this photo?
Here are the parts I used:

I would still measure the OD of your threads to make sure.
So you are saying you can't change the ride height any lower in the front by using the bottom threaded section?
I imagine any helper springs will fit since the OD of the shock body is most likely the same as the the knuckle. If so, I recommend eibach helpers. I use them in my setup:
with the ohlins, you change ride height by the bottom threaded section of the shock body (the part that goes into the knuckle). The top threaded part with the spring is for preload only.
You are reducing your shock travel if you use the top for both.
