lol, it's still her car. she approved on all the mods. we sold the LS months ago already, still shopping for our next car

project mu isn't new, they have been around for a long time. considered one of the premium brake companies in japan, probably close or on par with endless, which i guess more people know about. project mu in general are a lot rarer than endless by comparison.

yes it was great weather for that few hours. oddly enough, the day before, all cloudy and raining. and yesterday evening, pouring like hell

thanks for all the props again, appreciate it. just as i expected the brakes would get the most talk, haha. it's cool, a lot of factors go into that hehe and don't worry, i take both positive and negative

actually i would say project mu is better than endless, from what i've read or been told. btw, do you need to warm up the brake pads a bit before you get your excellent stopping power?

no, i have the street pads, so no warm up needed. the bbk also came with the racing pads, those will probably get me into crashes

I got to see this car in person before the unveiling.

It was nice seeing it yesterday, Henry. Too bad I didn't know where you were so I could say hello.
