Your drivng condition & mine are very similar. I only drive car typically on weekends so it just sits there all week.
My RR one just left me stranded yesterday. Only a year or so old.
I knew I have been having issues with it. Few times the car just totally dead like the dash wouldn’t light up at all. But lucky usually it’s been at home so I just jump it. Afterwards the cteck app would say the battery is at 100%...go figure.
I just got a lithium pulse charger to see if I can revive it.
Does your cteck app always say 100%? Mine never says anything but 100%.

Thanks for the kind words guys!

So far so good with the Braille. Got a notification the other day that I haven’t updated the battery status for 7 days. So, I just walked up to the car and ran the app. 13.33v as always. I think anything above 13v is 100%. That sucks about your RR battery.

Had some free time today and made these brackets to triangulate the strut tower support. I just need to get some aluminum tubing to connect the points. I may make one out of steel or Ti, we'll see how this works.

I feel the same, I'd be all over HKS stuff for this car! Thanks again for letting me borrow the firewall bracket!
