im just curious, what kind of brake pads are you all running? right now i have some EBC green stuff with some meat left. and i was thinking with trying yellow stuff, or a new brand.
Also a question.. i changed my pads about 2 years ago. but didnt change the rear since it had alot of meat left.. i recently checked and the rear still have a good amount on there.. do our cars not really use the rears unless the abs kick in?

I've tried the EBC yellows, and I think they are "slightly" better, but they're almost twice as expensive so it wasn't enough of a difference to spend the extra money on the EBC's for me.

Rough idle
I started my fd3s after not running for about a month. It started but ran rough like one rotor had no compression . It warmed up and then ran fine.Wondering if the apex seal got stuck and then when it warmed up it became unstuck.
I'm thinking of now steam cleaning the engine. What do you think of that idea?

Need to shed a few pounds prior to DGRR so I got a compressor with tire sealant so I could ditch my spare tire, stripped out my cd changer, old amps and xm radio, and finished the install of my new Braille battery, battery weight went from almost 40 lbs down to 17 lbs......WooooHooooo

Changed my water pump in my 83 cause the shaft was loose and had a lot of play, then only to find my girlfriends 85 gs's water pump is leaking. Dang now I can change these things in the dark !

Let me put it this way...if you have monkey arms and little girl hands you are set.
In all seriousness, once you know where everything is I can kind of understand being able to do it in 30m or so. You know what? After relocating it, it will take about 5.
I know which option I prefer!
