You’re shopping deep dish which is not really a thing that the S550 platform provides due to the geometry of the location of the brake calipers relative to everything else. Deep dish is more common older JDM cars. Theres a practical reason why you arent finding much with that 5 spoke deep dish...
If you swap pad compounds, do front and rear together. You have to keep the brake balance and dissimilar pads will mess that up. Slightly higher temp front pads are fine but OEM rears and track fronts are not.
Consider swapping at 50% pad thickness for track. Why throw away so much pad you...
Yeah the spring just allows them to sit at the bottom without actual bolts or fasteners on the bottom of the tank that presumably could leak or rust. It has nothing to do with fuel flow.
My guess is one of your two senders is sticky. Check that they move freely. If you had a weak venturi it...
Yeah the passenger side has a level sending unit with the venturi pickup. Drivers side has the pumps and another level sender.
I’d pull em and see if they’re sticking or if they move free.
If you're putting G2s on all four corners you can forget any concerns about oversteer and understeer. You'll get plenty of both, and any time you breath on the throttle in a corner, the rear is gonna come around. Terrible 'summer' tires.
Try the continentals or something. Dear god, try...
WltoTX is right. Ideally you are able to identify what you want to change about the current dynamics.
Your build list raises eyebrows. You have tons of braces and stuff but 2 degrees of front camber, so we’re looking at that and guessing whats up.
Next thing I’d buy is camber plates and...
heheh, well not with that attitude.
It does take some stops from higher speeds (100mph) in some cases, so sure that's fair.
Find a completely empty stretch of road where you can turn around and to pass without sitting at a light, then its possible to do it, but not so easy to arrange...
Well, I’d jack it up and check the hub for play. I’d also do a basic nut check and make sure everything is tight.
While I havent heard that exact sound, my best educated guess is replacing the hub, thrust washer, and axle nut will fix it.
Street tires like the ECS02 brake pretty hard. Track tires corner better but in a braking zone dont underestimate the street summers.
But if you’re a novice chances are stock pads are fine for a few events. Personally I run the R12 front and R10 rear. Lots of us like to stagger the GLOC...
Wing decklid off, splitter off and factory underbody on. Wheels and spacers swapped. Shocks softened from bonecrusher to bouncy.
Im gonna drive my car to work today and enjoy it. :)
As you’re finding out, TONS of people want to swap to get recaros. They cost quite a bit so you can ask a fair price and trade with someone and finding a local wont be too hard.
I was on the other side of this trade back in ~2019
Anyway use the classifieds portion of the site for that.
Wut? Its literally the easiest swap ever. Its four bolts and a couple connectors, and he’ll come out with a wad of extra cash from trading seats too. The only thing is he wont have heating/cooling on the sofa seats but he doesnt have that now either.
It happens. Only lost 1 in this car, Three feels like a lot, but dice roll funny sometimes.
I try to avoid following semi trucks. Anybody on the shoulder (on track or on road) can kick up a lot of crap.
