yea, that's what i meant.

 

I'm in Davis and will hopefully joining you guys in this month's meet (my first time). Ive got a 94 fd.

 

Davis is fine with me..


i still need to get signed up with SCCA and get a few rounds in so i can qualify for the MS discount for apex seals, i hate giving Atkins my business after some of the recent events i have seen/heard.

 

so ben you now have two or three rebuilds you are doing

 

That white na at his house is ****** nice. Brembo slotted and drilled rotors...clean wheels. And that semi cage or w/e. I like it So whoever owns it, props to them.

 

Sweet, now that I have a car, I can make it out to the meets again! No more, "well, the supercharger melted" or any crap like that. Unless, of course, the car is being tuned...

 

Thanks for the nice comments SmogSux. That's my DD/track car that I am trying to get fast enough to catch BMW M3's on trackdays with.

 

2 rebuilds atm, 1 for misc upgrades.

i'll do my best to get it fast enough yet be legal Rich.

 

Tell hell with being legal. Just register it out of state!!

Ben, you better move all of those cars before the crack head calls the popo!!

Ben,
I have another vehicle so you don't have rush yourself too much. If the crackhead calls the popo, I will intrduce his car to my Jeep.

 

ahem *her* shes a ****** crazy bitch. It's cool though all the cars are in his driveway now Oh Rich, how much were those rotors and where'd you get em from? They are Brembo right? I was deciding on powerslot or brembo and the ones you have look nice.

 

It was just a thought, I don't really want a new roomate . I think only the fronts are Brembo rotors. I will probably only get slotted rotors next time. They have been used for two trackdays and seem to do well. I will be installing 4 pots on the front and new pads before my next trackday. The following link is whare I got them.

i really need to find the right sized shop, it is getting kind of rediculous... but then again the price most shops want for rent is kind of rediculous too($1500-2000/mo).

don't worry about the crazy lady, the one in the shop will be out in a day or 2, i think she was just being **** because of the gold fc i have yet to finish because of the rebuild.

i think i'll take a pic of her next time she comes by, she looked super crack-a-licious that day... she needs to lay off the smack!

 

My car runs...runs like **** that is as expected of an untuned car. I test drove it and put $40 ******* dollars in it...goddamn gas is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ I only put 13 gallons in too...lol the 7 hours of ben playing with my car running in the garage musta sucked up fuel. I don't think my car would make it to 4k ben...at 3k it started making rapid mini backfires lol... and Rich why you going to get only slotted next time? Any problem with drilled? If slotted seems better I'm getting powerslot rotors..I found 4 for 360 shipped and its not ebay crap

oh and it took my 30 mins or so to find the stupid ******* radiator bleed bolt thing. i really need to clean that shop

edit: omg....100 per pair?! why the hell are they so cheap? I dunno if they really are brembo now All the sites I usually check are 100ish per rotor if they are powerslot slotted or brembo blanks..

 

yeah the other day i had mine over there too and there was like four or five of them hahahaha kinda tight though

 

is that the blue house lady lol
hey if you are serious about a shop a friend of mine has a nice one for 550
he fits 4-5 cars parked in there but plenty of room for 2 cars and lots of tools and a couch to lounge or what not

 

hey nick bring by your car soon like tuesday or wednesday i need to check out that 3rd gen alt
i want to get one and it has to be ordered before thursday so bring it by if i like it then i will order one

 

soooo..... where and when is the meet?

 

Oh c'mon now, they still have to fill up another page or two before we can get back to dicussing the meet... That or someone needs to make a meet info thread so people don't get scared off by all the other stuff going on in here...

 

Did you try ordering one on there? They're $100 just for the pair of blanks and then $65-85 more to get the slotting/drilled. Still damn cheap though...

From what I read theres alot of argument that (on cars- bikes are different) drilled doesn't do much except weaken the rotor. Slotted gives you all the heat venting or w/e it is you need w/o nearly as much risk of the rotor cracking like it might w/ drilled. But then again no brake rotor is gonna crack, drilled or not, except under seriously extreme conditions, which may or may not include excessive track day use. Thats basically a summary of some thread I read somewhere (might well have been on here actually I forget)...

Oh yeah and about the gas- HA HA! My gas is still at least 20 cents cheaper

From what I understand drilled does two things, 1 carries some of the brake residual dust and 2 carries away some heat. I have Cross drilled rotors and they seem to work very well.

 

What time do you all want to meet here? 4? 5? when?

Yeah I should have mentioned the thread was like a hundred plus posts at least and there were arguments back and forth- that was just a summary of some of the more educated posts. I wasn't trying to bash on crossed drilled at all and actually now that I think about it there were about as many people saying the cross drilled cracking stories were all myths and that they were superior to slotted. Just one of those issues where theres enough evidence on either side that its pretty much up to you which side you believe.
