  1. Base GT 4-Pot Caliper upgrade

    A while back ago, I stumbled across a company that offered an upgrade kit for the 4-pot calipers that included stainless steel piston cups and high temp dust boots and seals. Now I'm in need of this kit as the dust boots are currently dust themselves, and I can't find this company again...
  2. Helmet Care

    I have a HPDE coming up this weekend. I took a whiff of my helmet yesterday and it can only be politely described as "effervescent". I don't thing the lining is designed to come out for cleaning on my particular model. Any suggestions on cleaning, prepping for this upcoming weekend...
  3. Oh what fun - 2nd Clutch Job

    Back in March I replaced my clutch. It's a bit of a long sob story, but I also ended up installing a Fidanza Aluminum flywheel. It has not turned out well. It is incredibly noisy and difficult to drive so I'm going back to stock. One of the biggest problems I had was getting the...
  4. Mcleod RST Clutch Install

    Has anyone on this forum installed an RST in their Ecoboost? I'm trying to install a Mcleod RST clutch. I am having nothing but problems. Nothing fits as advertised. The alignment tool sent with the kit doesn't fit the pilot bearing. The factory flywheel bolts are nearly an inch too...
  5. Flywheel bolt Help!!!

    I'm upgrading my clutch to a Mcleod RST clutch this weekend. When got the stock flywheel off we discovered that the stock flywheel bolts are about 3/4 of an inch too long. I also seems that the holes in the crankshaft are not through but are only 3/4 in deep. Everywhere I ask, including...
  6. Transmission Jack Needed...

    I'm replacing my clutch soon. Does anyone know where I can rent a transmission jack near West Bloomfield, MI? Thanks
  7. Disc Brakes Australia USA LLC

    Has anyone tried DBA brake discs? If so, what pad did you go with? I recently tried the Power Stop Z26 pads on the stock rotors and although not to bad, I have a ton of pad residue on the rotors after a track day at Summit Point. Thanks for your input.
  8. Ordered RST Clutch for Ecoboost - Can't find Flywheel Bolts

    The title says it all. I was hoping to go with ARP flywheel bolts for that added margin but can't find a specific application. I imagine they are similar to the GT bolts, but you can't be too careful. Anybody know the specs on the Ecoboost Flywheel bolts? Diameter? Thread pitch? Length...
  9. Clutch Recommendation for Ecoboost

    Howdy, Coming home on the PA Turnpike from the last of 8 track days this year I experienced some clutch slipping. It's not bad and I can probably ride it out until spring time, but if I have any hope of doing more track days next year I'm gonna need a clutch. I have seen very few...
  10. Differential Fluid Change Question

    In anticipation of a track day next weekend (Summit Point), I decided it was well past time to change the differential fluid. Checked the owners manual for the capacity (1.5L), bought the appropriate fluid which came in 1L bottles, so, I bought two. Drained the fluid. Replaced the plug and...
  11. Running in the Rain - Tire Pressures

    It looks like I'm going to be running in the rain this Sunday at Waterford Hills. Not the most exciting of prospects but, any track time is a good time. Should I be running generally lower pressures in the rain than in the dry? Last time I ran in the rain, I had zero pressure build over...
  12. Lowered Seat

    I have done half a dozen track days this year. My EBM has been awesome! Handling, power and reliability have exceeded my expectations. One problem that I hope to address before next season is the seat height. I am 6 feet 7 inches tall, and while I'm comfortable during daily driving, it...
  13. Interesting issues after track session

    I had just come off the track after an extended session at Nelson Ledges, roughly 40 minutes and while backing into my paddock spot, the backup camera wasn't working. I let the car cool for more than an hour and miracle of miracles...the back camera worked fine. On the way home I stopped at...
