I am also looking for rear brakes, in my mind, if I upgrade rears will help braking distances and yes the appearance will get a boost...
Brembo made the GT rear which according to the page video, it will work with OEM fitment.
But the price is insane ~5k just the rears...
I don't consider myself old (just turned 30) and I totally agree, why people care that much about numbers? for this reason GT350 is almost dead, and the GT500 is all the people is talking, I like the fact that is DCT, but I would not buy one for myself with 2 pedals, is just not the purpose for...
As many of you, I have 2 setups
1. Daily OEM Premium chrome like, fat 5 spokes 8.5" wide wheels 255/40/19 square setup with Pireli Nero Weight per rim = 13 kgs (28.6 lbs)
2. Track (which kind of regret) PP1 OEM 9" 265/35/19 front / 9.5" 285/35/19 Pireli Trofeo R Semislicks
Now I was thinking in...
Totally agree with you, I would love to own an already legendary GT350/GT350R, Love my GT Manual though with its 7500 RPM & 3.55 gears and enjoy it a lot!!...
if the Mach 1 can reach 8000 rpm at least, Tremec 6 speed with 3 pedals, I will probably trade mine for it... at least in the near future...
it revs like 90's Hondas VTec engines (which is not an insult, all the opposite) and is a V8!!!!!...
I love my Gen 3 Coyote, at the track, friends just can't believe how it pulls and revs + the torque at high RPMs feels awesome
I would really like to own a GT350, but beside the price, I dont think is a good daily driver, my GT is a daily and track toy.
Mine is giving me 26 mpg in a good week (boring too). I might be wrong...what's your thoughts?
Hello all
I am track guy that go to trackdays 5 times a year approximately.
For the last 2 trackdays I've seen an issue when taking a long (NASCAR oval Style) left corner....
When the turn starts I am in 2nd gear accelerating almost to the floor then change to 3rd gear keep accelerating at...
I have a GT premium and so far so good...the pads made them perfect for my local track at the straight you only get like 180 kph (112 mph) is a twisty track (love it)
After reading all the comments I made some basic mods and am glad to share with you guys the results
I keep my stock 4 piston calipers, stock inverted rotor design
Ive changed
Brake fluid to Motul RBF 660
Brake pads to Hawk DTC60 all around
In addition put on Pirelli Trofeo R
After 5, 30...
I did not find DTC 50 at Hawk's page. For my car only available HB802G.661 which is DTC60 (or 70) and DTC30 I believe only for rears. That's why I am saying DTC60, and read in other articles that this is based only on th weight of the car so heating brakes is common and 60/70 are better for...
Yes ive seen the video and read the information. Something in Vorshlag's review mentions is that the issue is not the caliper itself, but the rotor. I would like to understand if keeping caliper and changing rotor would be sufficient at least at my current skill level. My next step is to change...
I have been in track days before, is just is my first proper project (paid by me) and not borrowed cars. The stock brakes are perfect to my level I think. The pads and rotors are my complain. I have putted Motul Dot4.0 for next track day and have decided to keep OE rotors until they fail. Pads...
Motul DOT4.0 Is in the car now, pads still in the process of investigation.. at this point I am thinking Hawk DTC60 or DTC70. Any other suggests? Other brands?
Thanks for the links
Maybe my redaction was not clear enough.
My question is. What differences are between Original Equipment DOT 4 compare to Aftermarket DOT 4 (if any)?
