I got "randomly" picked for a STAR smog inspection this year. Does anyone know if an egt probe in the stock exhaust manifold is grounds for visual fail? It's a nice clean install, stock heat shield...
What is a set of the front brembo's worth these days?
I had a similar problem, in fact the car was running real rough on the dyno, took the guys a while to figure out, but some of the connections between the ECU and my aging patch harness must have...

Sent pm earlier this weekend. Interested in picking up complete set.
Would you be interested in breaking up the extra's you're including with the BBK? I already have the st-40 kit (using with stock 17's, assume it's the same as what you have for sale, but would...
tried sending pm yesterday (first time on updated system), can't tell if went through or not. Wanted to know where you're located and what the production date on these was. Also wanted to know if any...
Odd coincidence, i was at the nurburgring last month too. Had planned on taking my new 335 (wife's car) on the Nordschleife for a couple laps, but despite their intentions to be open 3-weeks prior to...
That was awesome, made me smile. Thanks for posting.

any idea what that job would retail for at R1? Hadn't come across any references to them when I was searching for trans shops. But now that I got a rebuilt trans from TRE it' s just a curiosity as...
I've got both the go-pro and RAM suction mount. The go-pro seems to have a bigger suction cup and I can confirm that it holds up on the outside of the car (140mph on front of evo8). Since the RAM...

Time for a new clutch here, but I also need a 5th gear syncro too. Can you guys PM me about the trans work?
PM sent, bump for you.
I've got an update from AUTO Club Roval as well from a while back. Never added because the list wasn't being updated anyway.
Also added a Laguna time from last year and buttonwillow CCW from last...
I'd like to see those norcal track times, Laguna in particular!
What program did you use to Eden your vid?
Nice, thanks for sharing. Didn't watch every minute of every video, but saw a fair number of spun and sideways cars out there.
So far I've been out a couple times in damp conditions with light...
Looks greate to me, don't even notice the decal size.
Anybody know how the paint and decals fix will hold up to the (ab)use that turned the calipers pink or brown in the first place? Heat from...

Thanks for the info Zhong. I too am running the Girodisc TI shims, and i'm leaning towards Girodisc rotors right now.
Pure,
Off topic, but how are the perfomance friction rotors holding up for you? I'm using ST-43 pads in front (leave my daily ds2500's in rear) and tried to get by with powerslot rotors but they...
For Road racing you'll want a SA2010 helmet. Don't get talked into buying a SA2005 because it'll only last you a couple more years before they start being phased out, the SA2010 will be good for a...
