Madwi's picture dump and crap

madwi · 07-11-2020, 06:19 PM

Decided to not be totally lazy today and got rotors and new pads installed on the Z. Washed the wheels and gave them a quick coating of sealant and called it a day.

Took her out for about 50 miles of normal driving per the instructions. Brakes feel really good and firm pedal feel. I have 5 bottles of RBF600 sitting here so I guess I'll change the lines to the ss ones and fill with new fluid in the near future.

You have the proper wrenches for that?

I’m feeling you on the orange calipers, I’d color match the amber in the side markers when illuminated.

Im on prismatic powders website and I ordered 10 swatches.Most of them are orange/copper colored.

madwi · 07-12-2020, 10:46 PM

I like this one.

madwi · 07-16-2020, 04:42 PM

Picked up a Raceseng Vision knob in Red Translucent and a Tow hook in black/grey. Swatches from Prismatic powders came in also so I might start looking for a set of calipers I can get powder coated then rebuilt.

madwi · 08-20-2020, 03:17 PM

I have the next 11 days off so I decided I would start it off by learning to powdercoat. Pretty simple process.
I sprayed a coilover spanner wrench and gave it a shot of racing red from Prismatic. I really like this color up next to magma.

madwi · 08-20-2020, 03:26 PM

The color swatch and the color that the wrench turned out are spot on matches. Hope the other colors are the same.

Dont you have some exhaust v-bands you need to be doing?

Do you have F.I. 2.5" exhaust?

I do, with SS cans, non-res version.

Hotrodz · 08-21-2020, 12:10 PM

You will get better performance from the 3" exhaust but the 2.5" is louder and sounds better in my opinion. No much better and mostly just different in pitch and tone!
