Thanks

Got the Rotora Street Pads, They are Silver in color...but forget part number.

Here is the best pic i can find that shows how they were before...its kinda shows the difference, especially rears.



Thanks

 

Did you get them from Excelerate? I wonder if they fit the StopTech BBK.

 

I was looking into a pad from a diff company, and if you email Rotora they will send you the schematic for the pads so you can know exact size.

And yes i got them from Excelerate.

Edit: Just thought about this too, how are your pads held in? On the Rotora kit there are two pins that go through the caliper that hold the pads in. Not sure if it is the same on StopTech.

 

that shit looks crazy bro!!!!

 

there is a bolt-in bridge as they call it and retaining clip that goes over the pads and is held on with those two allen bolts.

 

Yea, sounds different...


Here is the Rotora Caliper.

 

Wow interesting, i thought Rotora had that too. Stoptech ftw! jk

From Stoptech:

STIFFER CALIPERS MEAN BETTER PERFORMANCE AND FEEL

Using finite element analysis (FEA) modeling software, we have designed a bolt-in bridge strong enough to stop distortion without sacrificing cooling through the top of the caliper. Distortion is virtually eliminated. The squeeze forged StopTech ST-40 caliper has the least flex of any tested aftermarket and OE caliper. The air channel in the bridge is designed to help air flow through the retainer, resulting in better cooling.

 

Good luck in your search.

 

can you go any lower?

 

Sure,
Add more camber and remove fender liners.

 

Do want.

 

doooo it

 

how is everything with the spacers? like anything you have to watch out for ?

Any rubbing yet?

 

Now I am confused! I thought that we were looking -1.0 +- .5? Is this right? What are the preferred spec. for the rear of my 06 6mt. camber?

 

Nothing ive needed to be worried about yet, ill probably look into some hubcentric rings, just need to measure the spacers.

I have rubbed in the back, and on the front bumper where it meets the fender, also top of fender liner but thats not because of spacers.

So ive trimmed away part of the bumper, and just dont throw my car into corners that hard.

That is right if youre looking to be in spec. With the offset im running, adding more camber is "better" looking than having to raise the car back up.

In the rear im running -1.5, im still on the fence about going to -2 in the rear, and i would like -1 or -1.5ish up front to help clear a bit more.

 

So for an 06mt/Aspec The numbers are like I said? -1.0 +-.5 ? I just want to know cuz the place I brought my car didn't have the numbers for the rear. It always comes out back light in red. Cuz he doesn't have the numbers in his machine. Thats why I buggin you so much. So thanks in advance!!

 

Yea when i was having my camber put in spec it was -.5 front and -1 rear, so keep it around there and you should be fine. A little more rear wont hurt, just make sure the toe angle is as close to 0 as possible.

 

so nice...

 

what did you trim the front bumper with? bc i have the same problem now

 

Thanks

Dremel with a sanding wheel. At very low speed so it wouldnt melt the plastic.
Also trimmed some of the fender down so it wouldnt have a sharp point.

 

^thanks bro ...

 

no prob.

 

^guess what ? i got a 15mm spacer on the way for the rear gonna put it on and see if it works ... so i ll be 18x9+25 245/40

 

Clean!!!

 

Nice that should fit pretty good...as long as you are rolled already my rears are at +23, but on a 19x8.5 so ita gonna be close.

What are you gonna use up front??

Thanks.

 

not sure yet ... my tire on the driver side is scraping where the bumper meets the fender just like you .. but maybe for the front ill do 5 mm spacer so it would be +35 i know that's weak sauce but i ll see
