Has anyone had this problem and ran a slightly taller rear? Anyway to stop the computer from doing this without pulling any abs fuse?


I've tried XP10/8 and the AX6 pads. Nothing is better than the stock Nissan pads FOR AUTOX in my opinion. The others put me in ice mode since they are too grabby and you're usually always trailbraking in autocross. That just freaks out the system in this particular car. PLUS the stock Nissan brakes are already great and the others just bleed off too much speed!

I recently had to bleed my clutch fluid after the Blytheville ProSolo. Got a little squishy. Motul fluid is great but it doesn't last as long as the low temp fluids...at least that's my understanding and experience with it. Lasted about a year.
