Fahd,
what noise are you talking about ??
rotors shouldn't make any noise.
With 2 piece rotors it's normal. When I had my previous AMG with 2 piece rotors, at night with windows rolled down running through underground parking I could hear the clicking sound of the 2 piece rotors. The sound is there it's just not easily noticed though. Mine were floating 2 piece rotors probably wouldn't and shouldn't happen with fixed ones. But there are advantages to floating vs fixed.
Yeah...makes sense...thanks.
BTW very nice build...I am currently thinking about Ferrada wheels for my "F"...the FR3 model. Did you not like them???
Late reply but better than never. lol! I'm more on FB and IG @ba2sy now. Ferrada were cool for their design and color. They're cast wheels so, they were in the heavy side. Did you end up getting the FR3?

I was so shocked in this day and age to come across such terrible customer service. What a pity since I believe Racing Brake makes such an amazing product. Did you choose the endless pads mainly because you can retain OEM sensors? Someone on this board recommended G-Loc pad which seem pretty impressive. Thanks again!
Late reply but better than never as well. lol! I hope you got lucky on searching about RB besides my post. Robert Simmons wrote one up before me as he was the test car. Link: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rc-...d-upgrade.html
Yea, Racing Brake owner is rude I heard. Best to deal with Mike at Figs. Yea, I got the Endless pads and I was able to retain the OEM sensors which is good before you over use your brake and mess up your rotors. Less dust with great bite too. I have not seen the G-Loc pad. Which one did you get?
I got it from the last Lexus Car Meet organized by Meraki. I barely had the time to get it installed at Tommy's Music Box. Here are some pics prior to install:
But I finally did it. Tommy said that it's impressive because it's made up of a high grade plastic. Really meant for the road. I just wished I knew about it and had it. It's good for RCFs that are "front-lip-less." I think I should ask for additional parts on both sides like the FRS(s)...
Aftermath of not seeing a freaking blown out tire at night on the fast lane while getting the car lowered for the first time...
I am still getting my front lip repaired with re-inforced metal and a high quality carbon fiber cloth. I wonder how it will look after it's done. Oh... the risk of getting a front lip... sigh~
Have the same Skid plate but haven't installed. Did you have to pull off the front bumper for the install? Not sure how I was suppose to thread the screw into the nut, since there wasn't any easy access behind the bumper
MSI, what my installer did is he took off the cover next to the bumper and tried to screw it from there. It was challenging for sure.

Hi! The brand is Nissan used by Rowen. I got it from them when I ordered it. At first, it didn’t come with my Rowen Kit. So, Bulletproof asked them to airship it instead of via 4month shipping.
Ask different vendors to get it for you:
Mod in Japan
Meraki Autowerks
Nengun
Try those. If not,
Bulletproof Automotive for a premium
What diffuser are you going to install it on?
