Rotora and Goodridge and Tein....oh my (pics)





Satisfied?



Well Christmas came a little late (my UPS guy is hating me right now)

Daddy's got a lot of work ahead of him, hopefully with a little help from Brett, mclarenf3387 you listening?

My rear brakes are starting to squeal a little and I think my rear shocks are toast so now is the time, although I wish snow season were over with all the salt the NJDOT throws down.

Dude,

That is one awesome sight ... I would have gone Teins in a heartbeat but the worry of the massive amounts of salt they use here ... I'm afraid the threading on the coilovers would rust ... so Tein (H.tech springs) and Koni Yellows in the spring ... here I come!

Which reminds me... I'm at 81000km and I hear my brakes squeaking too ...

Congrats! Next time I'm in Tri-State, I gotta check out your whip.

Oh, come on, Derrick. Michigan's probably worse than Canada!

I thought we had an agreement that we would show each other off with our new suspension setup come this spring.

Do they make anything else? j/k Yes SS all the way.

May look into the EDFC after I've had them for a while.

Hey Pure Adrenaline --

Of course! You've done a lot with your car since our June meet over at Buffalo Wild Wings! You just need to get yourself a nice set of rims (don't see it in your sig) and you're all set.

But when I see NSXNEXT's pics ... makes me think twice about the Tein SS (and now you've got them) Dammit. Decisions to be made ...

Hey Derrick you should come to Indy. They salt the roads before, during and after it's supposed to snow. Let me know when you get the Koni's and tell me how you like them. I'm at 68K and have had the H-Techs on since 5K so I'm thinking new Koni's this summer.

Um, no.

SS is so much better. I love being able to go from soft to stiff ride whenever I want to, using the EDFC.

Even without the EDFC, it's easy to control the damping rate (provided you have holes in the rear panel for easy access to the damper knob).

Oh, I know. I'm dying to get a set of wheels and tires, but I'm broke now after buyinig all those parts. But hopefully by spring time, I'll have enough money to get the Axis Milanos. I have my mind set on those.

NSXNEXT,

How are those pads with the Rotoras? I have the Axxis MM pads, performance wise they are great. They get a little dusty which I don't mind too much but recently they've been squeking. Kinda annoying.

I am truly amazed at the lack of dust these things produce. I still have my stock wheels on and when I wash I just have to hose them off.
