Stevetodd, thanks man. Yeah it looks alot better in person lol. I actually love the way it is set up right now, then I will get my cf hood and maybe trunk. I didnt see you behind me other wise I would have through the hazards saying hello. i did see a silver evo ix behind me the other day. Ive never seen it before

SOCUER77, yeah I been back for about six days now, and it feels great. You will meet alot of us when you get back. I plan on hitting up the meets here pretty soon.

Lots of work to do on the evo this weekend...if anyone wants to learn how to change brembo pads then hit me up.
I also will be sandblasting and re-painting my wheels.
She is getting less ghetto by the day, besides the white bumper

PS anyone have a stock ex manifold they wanna gift to me? or sell for a small sum of doll hairs?
Id use acft stripper.

I take the cap off the res and push the pistons in with my hands. Or you can use a "C" clamp and some thin wood of phenalic if you can get some.

Yeah I had read that too. I was thinking of buying one of those Giro Disc Piston spreaders. Although at $225 it seems like a bit much. Might be worth it for me since the Tundra also has 4 pots.

I will be doing my brakes soon on the X, the stock ones are very annoying. There is a lot of pad left on them but they squeak like a SOB. Other X owners say they had the same problem and changed them also. Looks like that will be my first mod on the X.
