For a quick minute I thought that ?was some kinda stone cold marble wrapā¦.
Anything affordable in those top two categories ?
Unfortunately I really need to use up what Iāve got. Itād be fun to take the OEM ones to the track and drive the snot outta them until nothing is left. Then have one...
Great explanation! Car looks fantastic btw. I really hope you track her someday ?. Price and ability to rotate was my main concerns for tracking. My non track months, I go back to the OEM wheels. They look good powder coated (or Hyperdiped in my case) compared to the fugly chrome they came with...
Yeah with your track experience, I really doubt those springs will hold up for ya. In town driving, no problemo. Coming from lighter cars myself, I thought I could do a few track days while waiting to decide which coliovers Iād get or if Iād need any at all ?. What a stupid & expensive way for...
Indeed. Iāve been on this same track for quite a while. First time Iāve corded the inside. Again, hindsight is 20/20. More likely the tires were used a bit longer than Iām remembering. Perhaps I drove in town longer than I normally do. Too many factors in this case that Iāve muddled up. I really...
Youāre right. Had I thought something had changed and I was still making alignment changes, I should have done that. And it wouldnāt hurt going forward, measure, looking for even temps across the tread⦠Iāve done it in the past when 1st setting up a car. However, Iāve been mega happy with my...
Ouch! Thereās simply not enough there to warrant that much coin. If it had more GT4 goodies slapped on, maybe it would make more cents. The black with red mirror caps actually looks great for the final edition send off. But for a few hundred bucks more, not thousandsā¦.. Iād even buy my own...
Well this was a 1st for any car Iāve ownedā¦
Corded the inside left (driverās side) tire. Granted I did a lot more in town driving than I usually do and busted an end link while driving at Sebring (turn 17). A button screw (they called it something else) came off on track.
Luckily a...
Those cupholder covers also act as a glovebox filler. You finally get the wind buffeting thingy andā¦. a phat GR crooked sticker on the side you get to rip off yourself. Enjoy!!
Yeah used Motul once from a trackside company that did my pads & fluid. It only lasted that weekend. Went right back to SRF. Iāve been using SRF shortly after getting this car⦠great fluid, last longer like you said, given its higher wet temp. If my car doesnāt go to the shop in between track...
Love Borla ? What made you decide to change?
Man thatās some cool lighting!! And way better than the apocalyptic video game looking lights that are always flickering in my garage ?. Need to add that to my to do listā¦.
Used to do it myself & change the pads & rotors. But I donāt track nearly enough to do so. Plus, sheās usually at the shop in between track days for something I bought or broke ?. Both shops do it for me now really cheap.
As far the ABS magic, after hearing so much about it on here, I asked...
Did Cusco provide the bolt? You could always call them and get a replacement. Or even ask them. Since they deal in that part, they might know ?āāļø
And like others have said, taking the bolt from the other side to a Toyota dealer, ACE hardware, or NAPA store to match it up would be easy for them :)
Yeah, Iām not saying itās not good to buy a house. But there are better investments out there than a primary residence. Itās never good to be house poor. And location location location is a term everyone knows in real estate. Thatās so important given that every area is different. Doing your...
My most solid pedal feel is after fresh fluid or bleeding out the dirty fluid. So I do that after each track weekend. Most will call it overkill but itās easy to do. Maybe itās a Florida thing, who knows. Regardless, they start to get mushy whenever I donāt do it. Especially after a full 3 days...
Yup. Didnāt know if there was anything else or other suggestions you might have had. At least thatās what I thought he was asking.
*(I gotta admit I do punch out responses too quickly and then ??āāļø do other things. Iāll be more meticulous in da future brother B)* ?
Do you track all year round, cold suit & the works? I know the S2K can take it but it got hard for me ? toward the end of my time with her. If you donāt drive all year round, whatās your cut off time (Iām down to Oct - March)? Just curious and beautiful car David!!
