Wait, back up a sec... did you say FREE OIL? ;-)

WOW, That blue is, GRABBER!

Yea, I've heard good things about Adams. Hard to go wrong with such a great name! The Griot's 3 in 1 is new and has nothing but great reviews all over the place. I called Griot's and asked about compatibility and they said that will work with anything except carnuba wax. I have Wolfgang's...

WOW!!!!!!!!!! Love the color! Yes, MORE PICS! I did PPF on nearly every body panel and am VERY happy. Especially the trunk panel between tail lights since it scratches so easily. I also did the fuel filler door since it gets handled. I added the roof and trunk lid which lets my OCD relax when...

I'll play... 2-Shelby corral. I only wish the pole was gone, ceiling was taller and the entire thing was BIGGER! But I've never met anyone who said their garage was large enough.

See my updated post above, and here: I'll take the car out again this weekend and put some more miles on them, but as you can see, they seem to be good. I miss that initial Brembo-bite, but if overall stopping power is the same and dust is reduced, I'M HAPPY.

No problem. But be forewarned about the reduced initial bite. I sorta liked that bite.

UPDATE LOG: Tonight I took the Shelby out for a ride. My plan was go repeat the bedding process and then go for a drive to a local cruise/show about half our away. As I drove to the highway service road where I could perform the bedding procedure, I realized the brakes felt very good. (thumbs...

I just cleaned the wheels as I do after every ride (to me it's a toy as I said and stays in the garage under a cover) and it wasn't as dusty as I first thought. But it was a short ride. I'm going to take it out tomorrow and do the bedding again since they said it will only get better, and I'll...

I decided to give PowerStop a call to ask them my questions. I had a very nice woman named Tina on the phone who said that I could certainly try and repeat the bedding in process, that it won't hurt the pads at all, and could only help. She said to give it a week or so of driving and if I'm not...

I just installed Z26 all the way around my 2018 at 6,600 miles. I took the car out without having to use the brakes much until I got to my test area to do the pad bedding. I was able to follow the instructions to the letter (the traffic gods were smiling on me). Then I went for a 30 min ride...

How can the front be the same noise source as the rear if it's an axle nut? And how can a car get a new hub then have the noise return a few hundred miles later? I feel like something else is going on here.

I just hate bringing it to the dealer. How many hours does it take to do the hub? Maybe I'll demand to wait for it

If just removing and reinstalling the wheels can make the noise stop for a while, and clearly nothing is going to break or fall off while driving (I have not read about anything like that happening to ANYONE) then doesn't that tell us this is a sound inherent with the car? Whether it's the two...

maybe it's just a sound these cars makes due to the combination of parts, particularly the two piece rotors. Or maybe it's the axle bolts, or lug nuts. Or a combination of them all as I said. But has anyone seen any type of failure as a result of this? I have not heard of any, so I feel it's...

Yea, probably right. I have one on the shelf AND ONE IN THE TRUNK! Good thing, too, because when we did the last oil change the pressure of 10 Qts of oil shot that thing across the garage floor and we almost lost it!

are you guys reusing or replacing your plastic drain plugs? So far, I've replaced it each time. I figure for $8 it's good insurance since it has an o-ring and is, after all, plastic. My Ferrari mechanic friend suggested it as well (no, I don't have a Ferrari lol)...

Impressive. My college roommate rolled a brand new, I mean BRAND NEW, 1988 Formula Firebird 350 with me on it. Actually, he didn't toll it as much as he flipped it end over end and landed it upside down, in a creek, down a 20' hill. We were hanging from the seatbelts with the creek water running...

Oh no way. The AMC's were at least real cars, not to mention had cool options like the Gremlin X. The Pacer, well, at least you could fit a Maverick inside of it! LOL What did the Yugo have? THREE LUG NUTS!

At least it wasn't the car listed on the last page... The only unanimously voted on car: YUGO! (for the worst car of all time! hehehe) Oh, btw, look at the blue car in my signature and note that it was also on the list :-D
