If I was to run it as it, I'd be far more tempted to leave the material in place and risk it making contact at full droop if anything, but still seems like something is off with the install.

zlalomz replied to the thread Steeda Rear Camber Arm Contact.I got the go ahead from Steeda since they are just barely kissing each other. I will see if things get better once it is buttoned up and aligned. So my next question is this. If things stay the same, would it hurt to take a small half file and... (see full post)
- EF1 replied to the thread MCA 50th anniversary track days @ Road Atlanta.Not sure if MCA has rental helmets or not. Hans is optional but highly recommended if using harnesses. Most hans are not compatible with oem seatbelts. The Simpson hybtid S is but kind of expensive. (see full post)
backflip99 replied to the thread MCA 50th anniversary track days @ Road Atlanta.Here's a couple more noob questions for you. I'm reading thru the MCA event rules document and see that a helmet is required. They don't mention rentals, so I'm guessing they won't have them on hand and I need to purchase one? Note: Please don't... (see full post)
If you haven't purchased yet you might go with the 660+ instead.......easier tire to drive on for someone new as they telegraph much better and will be faster. Sure, they will wear faster but some drivers find the 615s to be rather uncommunicative.- TeeLew replied to the thread CCW wheels.Vroom. (see full post)

Like.Another S550 build. One lesson leaned, my braided brake lines from the previous GT500 calipers in that the lines are not compatible. Had to replace those for the 550 Brembos.

- Slow3v replied to the thread Splitter Support Rods?.If you need a new splitter, Kona, I can hook you up with a gentleman that makes them (factory reproductions). They're priced fair IMO, and made with the same material as OEM (1/4" ABS) - one side smooth, one textured. He has both WC and LS.I... (see full post)

backflip99 replied to the thread MCA 50th anniversary track days @ Road Atlanta.Man, I'd love to come down for the ALS fundraiser, but I've got to watch my expenses too so I'll probably be making my maiden voyage on the track in August. (see full post)
- 665.0coupe replied to the thread S197 2005 GT.I already have the 615+. I considered the 660+, but they were more expensive. Another benefit to the 660+ that was pointed out to me by a friend, is that they can be flipped on the wheel to get a little more life out of them.Once I wear out... (see full post)

- EF1 reacted to Tim.ocon's post in the thread What did you do to your Boss 302 or S197 today? with Like.Not quite today but Sunday-Installed 3.73 gears, T2 Torsen and 1 piece aluminum driveshaft into my 2014 V6 as well as some regular track prep, new pads, rotor scuff and put 1L of brake fluid through the system!
- 665.0coupe replied to the thread S197 2005 GT.I haven't run the spec tire yet. Since I'm just starting out, I decided to go with Falken RT-615's since they are cheaper and I figured I would be burning though them while learning. (see full post)
