I can't do the t&t... I have a family obligation to attend on the 17th that will require mass consumption of adult beverages.

Not to mention that we have out of state family staying with us...

Project Mu Brake Items
Anyone have any opinions with these brake parts? Just found out I can get decent pricing on them, anyone have any experience with them? Pricing seems to be competitive coming from japan and all..More specifically the HC+ compound..

IIRC its broken into 2-4 heats. you work one and run the others. the sessions aren't organized though, its more of a free for all in that you just do a run, make an adjustment and do another run to see the changes. i think I got 20+ runs last time and I was taking it EASY.

Cool. Am I wrong to assume there will be a completed course as if it was a regular series event?

you are correct sir. When I did it last year they had a skid pad setup and just about every type of element you would come across during an event, so you can really TUNE your setup!

nothing. haven't had a chance to touch the car. I'm going to try the OEM plastic BOV first and see what that does. Probably throw that in on Sunday when I'm rolling my fenders

I just ordered a few needed things for my car with my private account I keep seperate from the she devil

All I need now are the cams, lifters, and timing belt tensioner pulley, and all the valve cover gaskets.

I may end up getting stop tech cryo non slotted rotors all around with some decent pads too.. I was hoping to hear reviews on the HC+ compound. I want something that bites hard but I dont need a race pad as I may only do one or 2 autox a year or a trackday, but then again that would be a damn miracle all in itself

I ended up getting all the gates racing belts and stuff
