What's been going on at Bobo's Garage (tm) the past month? Brakes, oil coolers, and coilovers - oh my!
I don't seem to have any pics of Shahid's work that we did, but it was quite a few trips to get him sorted out sadly. We painted his non-sport calipers red, swapped his pads for Carbotech XP8's. We also ran and bled some Motul brake fluid for the track (a royal PITA it seems with the non-sports...). This led to at least one very long night to get him straight for Summit Point, sadly, as painting calipers should really be an overnight job :-p. Oh yeah, we also found a smokin' deal on an oil cooler for probably 1/3rd of the price, brand new, on craigslist. He snatched it up, and we put that in not long ago.
This past weekend, my friend with an 02 Mustang GT finally decided he wanted to do something with his car, to hit the road course. He's owned it since brand new, back in 2002, and it doesn't even have an intake or exhaust on it yet. He decided to go with a Maximum Motorsports coilover kit to replace his entire suspension (among many other little bits, like urethane bushings left and right). We spent 2 days working on it and dealing with snags (and, in general, taking our time drinking beer) til we got the fronts done. Rears will be completed this Thursday. Pics of work below:
Turned into a mod orgy at Bobo's place, when his friend lost power after the big storm. Turns out, I'm so bad-*** that storms don't f-ck with me - I f-ck with storms, and my house was spared of any power outages. Camaro kid installed an intake and a 1-4 skip-shift eliminator.
The new suspension! I bet she handles...
You're not doing it right if you aren't modding at 1:30 in the morning.
