Sup guys, thought I'd share some picture from today. Went up to my local track today, basically my 2nd home and took out the Lotus, Neon and oboviously the Evo. I had brand new pads in the Neon as of wed and they just got seated. However the brakes went to pure **** after 2 laps so I must have a bubble in the line, however I measured brake temps everything was well, well over my 500* reader could handle. So idk, I have rbf600 in it.
The lotus as allways was great. and the Evo I had brand new hps pads and crossdrilled and slotted rotors on it and maby 70 miles on them of me trying to bead them before it went on the track for 5 easy break-in laps.
Got the thing out there and I must say, I'm less than impressed by the brakes on the evo the pads are almost all the way seated but it just doesn't have any bite, to progressive of a pad maby.
Anyways, what you all came for.... the pics.








My new lug nuts

The ride is now about .5inch lower than the lotus you can see in the background





Got a chance to run the cars backwards on the track and it was AWSOME.
I got only one side of headlight tint in and I think it looks pretty good, deff stands out a lot, more or less on the same level as people that have green rims.





Special thanks to BeaveRun Motorsports Complex

 

why is the 1 headlight yellow tinted ? one not ?

 

yeah whats up with that yellow headlight.. lol

 

And I think you should do both if your going to do it although I wouldn't at all personally.

 

as far as for the green rims , they dont have it at one side !
stock car with one side yellow deff stands out

 

Yeah, I got it off ebay and the dude messed up and sent me only one side, wtf??
So the other should be in on monday and ill toss it on. I saw it origionally on a black 06 sti and it looked great, idk im undecided it deff is unique. Gotta get rid of all this plowing the evo does. Gonna get a stiff rear sway bar.
What do you think black would look like? anyone wanna photoshop one?

 

are those aftermarket lugs on stock wheels? i thought that couldnt be done where did you get them?

 

Good to hear that you're trying your cars out. Evo should be out on track.


For yellow headlight pics - check out my website in my sig

 

Yeah, the yellow looks good, I'm gonna put em on when I get it. I got the lugs off ebay and yeh any lugs fit on stock wheels because its a m12x1.5 which is thinner than stock anyways.

 

Nice pictures and a day at the track is always fun.It does look like your car has some sort of eye infection though haha.

 

Eye infection lol. I just took off the tail light tint vinal as it was starting to peal, im gonna spray em tonight.

 

LOL - you should leave it like that - pirate car.

 

Yeah, deff a pirate car, cause it gets all the BOOTY.



Oh snap

 

Must be nice to have a nice selection of cars and on top of that be able to run them on the track regularly. Keep us updated on the brake situation with the evo.

 

Yeah, I just spent some time after my fireworks cleaning it and getting underneath the car. After close examination of the rotors and pads there not fully seated, im not used to breaking in street pads so maby these have more of the coatings on them, no way they shouldn't be fully seated by now. The pads we use in our race cars fully bed in about 4 laps, and its using R8 rotors and calipers so its nothing "crazy" either, these just didn't want to grab. I cleaned them so tomorrow I'll do some more testing with them.
