  2. Is my trutrac trutoast?

    The .061 really did matter. Was only able to recreate the noise once or twice in the 236 laps ran last weekend compared to almost every lap last year. Also I have an extra set of the rear cobra caliper brackets that fixed it because rock auto was slow shipping and it was crunch time. Dm if...
  3. Is my trutrac trutoast?

    Where my rotors were rubbing on my hand clearanced brackets was .885 on regular cobra bracket is .946. In about 10 days I will return to the same track and find out if the .061 matters!
  4. Is my trutrac trutoast?

    Found the evidence of rotor hitting the caliper bracket. Can definitely see how this would be the issue. Upgraded to cobra rear brakes and used my old caliper brackets after some clearancing. Probably not enough! Also no anti moan brackets!

  7. Is my trutrac trutoast?

  8. I swapped an S550 Rear Subframe into my SN95

    Do you think this could be done with the oem fuel tank? Looking at the first video around 19 minutes looks like you would need to move the irs 2 or 3 inches forward.
  9. Where did this come from?

    You guys just gave me a great idea for what I think will become my new favorite game of leaving random nuts and bolts laying around other peoples cars.

  14. 2 Instances of Stripped FoMoCo Racing Front Wheel Studs - Advice?

    Not clear to me if you are retorquing each session. I’ve always been told to just retorque once per track day - that doing it in between sessions will break or strip studs.
  15. On-the-fly toe adjustment

    I thought I saw somewhere that they only actually used DAS during yellow to heat fronts so they could late brake everyone into the first corner?
