Wow very nice man

 

So envious!
Nice touch on the sub frame hardware.
You always 2 levels above!
Cant wait for more feed back. Curious on cold braking feel, dusting & squeaks.

 

This has to be the finest RCF out there.

 

Thank you!

Thanks!
After bed-in, cold bite is pretty much the same with the iron rotors, gets better with heat. Pretty quiet, the only noise/squeak I hear is when at a stop and slightly releasing the pedal pressure to let the car creep, which also happens with the iron rotors. Steering feels lighter and acceleration seems to have improved! It's most likely that I will get the rear kit!

Thank you!

 

with all of the incredible work you've done, just curious if the weight was within your expectations or otherwise?

 

I think it is well within expectations. It should be less than 3900 now after the front ccm brake rotors and more fasteners replaced with Ti. Thanks!

 

Been wanting to install some better lighting in the garage, finally spent the time this past weekend.

 

Made some aluminum grill to keep the oil coolers from getting damaged.

 

Got my new Status seat!

 

Great idea with the mesh grill! How did you mount them? Did they just sit behind the vent?

Seat looks cool and light, what does it weigh? Pretty comfortable?

 

The mesh grills are on the outside of the existing grills and held by small nomex lace ties, if you look closer, you might see them in 6 places. I will probably look into putting them behind the factory grill and I know that will at least require removing some plastic cover under the car, if not removing the bumper cover.
Thanks!, Can't wait to install the seat but the status brackets that I want are on backorder.

 

Lovely new upgrades. Can't wait to see more!

Any feedback on the newer Figs bushings?

 

Thanks! I definitely think the bushings upgrade is a must. Handling and steering feels more precise and tight. Plus, your front tires will last longer.

 

Car is drool-worthy.

RE: your QuickJacks. I recall you saying you have the 5000's and they're just a hair too short. Do you happen to know if the "extended" version of the 5000's would be too long? (the EXT model is 6" longer)

Thanks in advance.

 

I think they make extensions for the 5000? But 6" longer should be OK as there's a pretty wide pad so you can move the rubber blocks back or forward to line up with the lifting points. The 5000, although just a little short, works just fine cause I use a small block of 2x4 on top of the rubber blocks anyway, so I just offset those a little. You can kind of see it in this picture.
