EricH replied to the thread GLoc pad question.Threshold braking - haven’t noticed a difference in stopping distance or performance is what I meant. Pedal feel remains strong all session.I think the oem brakes are really just that good/are overkill with the non-handling pack cars’ narrow... (see full post)
GTP replied to the thread Advice on camber setting for track.Put paint marks on the bolts so you can tighten them to the same position. I just remove the lower bolt and then pivot the caliper up on the upper bolt. Swap the pads out. I don't buy new bolts and I don't use any threadlock. Make sure to... (see full post)-

Rodpwnz replied to the thread Cooling Modifications.To clarify, S550 does NOT have external thermostat 7H322 nor coolant heat exchanger 7A095B. I do not know if S650 has an INTERNAL thermostat, but it wouldn't make sense to if there is already external thermostat 7H322.Please see S650 and S550... (see full post)-
