Good evening all So, I’ve wanted to switch from my auto to a manual for a while. Finally found a nice Bullitt that had what I wanted, bought it yesterday. Never drove a stick before. got it home fine, most of it was on the highway. now we arrive to my problem. I really struggle releasing the...

You’re probably right, I did have a PPI done though. I just officially bailed on the deal this morning though

Yep, that is a sweet combo. Not too many grabber blues for sale though and basically none with the active valve exhaust good luck on the truck search

Thanks everyone. I think I’m gonna pass on this, tho it kills me to do so, due to rust concerns from Ontario plus Carfax. Ugh! I just want easy gratification! Lol

No frame damage as far as I or the mechanic could tell. They did an alignment on it for me, no problems there, thrust angle is like .08 or something not crabbing and yeah there are plenty but it is nigh on impossible to find one that has grabber blue, manual, performance pack, and active valve...

I live in an area with a lot of traffic, but I can take the metro for free to work so it’s not really a daily in traffic

Mechanic said it needs rears

It had undercoating/rust protection applied at about a year into its first owner so can’t really see if it’s rusting The other thing is it will be my first manual car. How do you like the MT82, is it bearable in traffic?

I’m not sure it’s accurate that I’m making excuses, I’m trying to balance the advice I’ve been given/my risk tolerance with the allure of the spec

Howdy folks, There is a GT PP1 that has the exact spec I’ve been looking for for years. It has been surprisingly difficult to find a car that is grabber blue, manual, pp1, and has active valve exhaust. now, the problems. It has a moderate accident on its carfax, and it is originally sold in...

I really like the standard seats, and love cooled seats. My issue is that in the standard seat I don’t fit well with a helmet at 5’10”. I have to weirdly recline the seat to fit inside

How was dominion? I’ve only done Jefferson circuit for trackcross at summit point. Really think you’d need a bigger radiator for first couple HPDEs? I’m on a base GT too

Trackcross and intro (read: slow) HPDE is what I grabbed the R10 R8 combo for as well. You don’t happen to do your trackcross at summit point, do you?

For what it’s worth, my rotors with R10s on them have a slight brownish hue to them, and they’re definitely not glazed - haven’t tracked these pads yet. I was assuming it’s just pad material

I’d love to try the shims but I have the four piston brakes and I think the shims are brembo only

That’s pretty interesting to hear. The experiences seem quite mixed (on the noise front, not performance) so I wonder if it’s just the build quality variations of a small company. I was surprised the edges weren’t chamfered but maybe that’s a track pad thing

Hmmm ok gotcha. I was ok with the light squeal/metal compound noise, but the wine glass - esque shriek is a bit much lol. Do you have a non-PP? Wondering if I can easily change the front pads without removing the caliper

Ok same but only on one wheel haha. I expected a compound grating noise, but it sounds more like a really loud version of rubbing your finger around a wine glass

When you get the noise on a slow stop, is it quiet compound noise or a loud shriek sound? Just curious as I’m getting the latter from one of my R10s and I’m not quite sure why. Seems to be getting worse as I put more miles on…

Really old post but which piece is the brake pad slider up front? The two pins going through the pads or something else?
