CBRD- last week- what was happenin'

Just wanted to take some time to post some pics from the end of last week---

we've been extremely busy (especially with the spring weather hitting) and I havent been able to post any updates of what is going on around the shop---

We were doing some STi work, and more work on Georges beast---(larger turbo etc)---

and normal clutch work etc---

hope you enjoy---

the big stack of boxes is radiators lined up ready to go out- in our gameroom- which now has become a parts room due to lack of space--

new building should solve that- news of that will be coming shortly!!!

cheers

Looking good Chad. Did I read in one of my sports car mags where you were going to race your EVO in one of the East Coast Time Attack events?

How are you finding the NT01's Chad? We love them because they work straight of the pits, no need to warm them up!

Have you had any problems with exhaust cam angle sensors dying without running heatsheilds?

That DSM with the "pipe" manifold is awesome!

Cheers, Mike

Thanks Mike- and everyone-

I have never used the NT01's --- these are going on an Sti with JRZ RS1's--- so we will see---

How do you like them compared to tires such as Ad08/Ao48, R1's? etc?

Be curious to hear your feedback- you guys are alot more passionate about road racing and so forth than many people over here (but we are forcing that change hee he)....

We havent had a single cam sensor die-

that being said- some of the cars in the pictures do have them... but they are taken off sometimes so we can service other bits around them.

I would say they will not be as good as the A048 or the Potenza RE55 and Dunlop 03G, but they are sticky right out of the traps. This in my opinion is a good for beginner drivers and people wanting grip straight away (time attack?)
They do get better when they get more worn too.

We are using 275 wide on our V11 WRX STI (http://www.facebook.com/carlruitermandrifting) and Carl loves them!
Start on about 26-27psi and run hot at 30-32psi, is that what you guys aim for?
