Again, thanks for all the help. I'm getting close. |

Good for you. ;) |
Here's a video from my 3rd session, at the end. Can't edit the video for the middle part. :mad: Which I did my best lap times, chasing a build mustang around. :tup: He couldn't get away from me, until he spun it.

Just curious - with the amount of track time you have been doing lately, how is the color on your calipers holding-up? There was a lot of talk awhile back that repeated heat cycles would make the bright red color turn brown.
Yours seem to be doing fine. I've got the same color done by Mike. |

Glad to hear they are holding up.

Nismo ducts installed! Running the hoses next week.
Big thanks to Rusty! :tup: |

An alternative to cutting the duct tubes:
Speedi-Products 4 in. x 20 ft. Standard White Vinyl Flexible Hose-EX-SVH 04 at The Home Depot Use the flex hose to avoid the washer tank and then plug the reducer into the hose. It also eliminates the need to turn down the reducers. |

I was just thinking about how to do it differently and it struck me that by using some of this flexible 4" hose, it wouldn't be necessary to cut all of the duct tube off. I think I have enough clearance to just mate up the Stillen hose to my ducts as I cut them down like yours and I positioned the ducts almost an inch closer to the grill opening than yours. I hope to install the hoses on Saturday (didn't have access to jack stands last week), so we'll find out. Again, your help has been priceless to me. I'm just trying to think things out to possibly make it easier on others who are planning on doing this. :tup: |
For ducting, I'd use the high-quality aircraft-grade stuff. It has better ribbing to hold shape, and is more everything-resistant (tear, heat, oil, etc): Ducting from Aircraft Spruce

Hi Rusty, how are the rotors holding up? Did you take any rotor temperature reading during track use?
Would love to see the improvement in heat dissipation quantitatively speaking, since that's oem nismo's weak spot. |
Rotors are holding up fine. No problems with them. Have 5 trackdays on them. Going tomorrow for number 6. :D

Did a trackday yesterday. I got bumped up to Group 2 Solo. Meaning now I'm with the semi-fast with no instructor. :D The lead instructor told me at the end of the day, that next time out. If I want, I can run in Group 3. The fast crazies. :driving: LOL
