I hope you're wrong, Chris ... with these + proper airflow, would like to see 'the problem' go away... if it doesn't going to be rather frustrating and I may be tempted to disable ABS all together

FYI in case you all are wondering, Mike at DDM and I confirmed fitment of the AP Racing brakes with the 18" Forgestars. Not sure yet about the 19" OEM Sport wheels, but I'm betting they will fit.

I'm hoping I'm wrong too. Like I said, I plan to disable ABS half way through the next auto-x to test out that theory. Speeds are lower so it's a lot safer.

Glad to see the diff is now silent. I couldn't deal with that noise.

Yeah, amazing how much difference the right gear oil makes!

I think we still have a minor rattle in the exhaust, but for my purposes doesn't really matter.

UPDATE: AP Racing brakes are on the way and should be installed by middle to late next week. Pictures and street impressions next weekend, hopefully. Also hoping to get the Spa gauge, dual oil cooler and rear diff cooler set up finished next week.

Graphite will be the future owner of my OEM brakes! going into an infiniti

This is great, I can't wait to see pics. And a note to self: Use the correct gear oil for the rear diff. LOL.

Won't have the car back until next weekend, so you'll have to be patient on driving impressions... next track event ~2 weeks away, 11-july

slotted rotors flow well with the lines on the sport wheel... this setup is going to look even better with the forgestars in matte black

Looks nice, I like the subdued grey rather than the screaming red.

Those are some beefy calipers, although with the 2-piece rotors I hope you are still shaving off a couple of pounds.
