All this car talk is making me ancy for a get together and drive.

All this talk about brakes and exhausts have got me to finally make up my mind. I'm going to get a set of the stock Rays, put 20mm spacers on, then upgrade to the Akebono BBK. Then I'll convert my 18s to blizzaks and put them away until winter. I've decided on the exhaust, FI TDX CBE with 18" resonators. That way if I decide to TT it, the GTM turbos will bolt right up to the exhaust.

I have a set of clean stock rays if you want to buy them. If your interested you can come take a look to see if you want them. I had 20mm spacers too...but just sold those couple weeks back.

Was thinking about these also...they don't have the rear out yet but should be soon.... Z1 2 Piece Akebono Front Rotors

edub370 · 02-15-2014, 01:12 PM

i would love to have some 2 piece rotors. i just cant justify the cost since i drive my car on the streets 99% of the time

MigMac · 02-16-2014, 07:55 PM

Damn you guys. All this talk about 2 piece rotors has me thinking about getting a set. The Z1 rotors look to be about 200 bucks cheaper, but I am not familiar with the rotor manufacturer. The 20 pound drop (total) in unsprung weight is tempting. I will have to do some research on the popularity of the two brands and see which is more popular.

DEpointfive0 · 02-16-2014, 08:05 PM

Z1 FTW, call John and tell him Andrew the ásshole sent you.

99% of my driving is on the street too, and you feel that weight loss, especially if you're lead footed like me

edub370 · 02-17-2014, 09:13 AM

lol dang, now i'm regretting not going with 2 piece z1 rotors
