Ky, glad to hear you are good man. Can't wait to see all the parts for your car.
Don't know if anyone is interested in going, but Import Face Off is Sept 2nd. I think I am going to try to go. Tickets are a little steep, $30 for entry in the show and $17 for a "spectator". There will be $8k up for grabs in cash and prizes. They are also doing a "test and tune", burnout competition and a sound off. Sounds like fun. Oh, its in Topeka at Heartland park.

I have been running powerslot slotted rotors since 100K miles....and i switched the front pad after 40K miles and this one is going at 60K miles....love that stuff....but powerslot rotors with hawk HPS or RB ET500 pads is gonna be like 500-ish for the set....
I thought BM stuff is crap but havent heard a single problem on the BM thread....Dave/Matt tell me that the stopping power is great....and thats why I have been thinking why spend the extra 300+ bucks?
now if you get the RacingBrake 2 piece front rotors i will be very jelly....they usually go for 700 for the front 2....

There are no more motor upgrades unless I start shelling out cubic dollars. Right now I'm just finishing the brakes and fixing up a couple other parts. Ordered o-rings/grease to rebuild my ABS modulator, I'll be getting a new center console upper vent+ trim piece to replace my original that's delaminating, and also buying a new intake air temp sensor since 20 years of blowback tends to gum them up pretty bad and give faulty readings. Just little things for now. Also ordered thermal insulating gaskets/washers for the intake manifold, so the engine doesn't heat soak the intake mani and cause higher intake temps.

I hope it's a manual transmission
Ordered the rear brakes today, they're finishing the e-brake brackets this weekend, then they will release the full kit to the public. Needless to say I'll have the first "Full" kit on an NSX. ^^
