I monitor tire pressures pretty closely.



I will have brake cooling ducts at some point, haven't gotten around to it yet. I'll probably do it after I get the 3D printer.

Ah.











I might just take this opportunity to make a jibe about pigfat LC2s, and mention that you should get a glorious X3. Ditch a solid 250 lbs stock for stock.

But I don't like the X3. And if I was to buy a cheap light car just to race I would buy a NA Miata.

Yeah I'm heavily tempted by an NA as well. Although I'm not a baller so it'd have to be my daily as well - I kindafit but I'd get so killed in a rollover, even with a roll bar.

yeah, back on topic.



i recently bought a set of ebc green stuff pads on my j2 with new rotors, new guide pins,

i'm sure yellow stuff is the best in terms of bite and absolute stopping power for the money and for daily driving use..only if you dont mind the short life and brake dust.





i've still have another 200 miles until my basic break-in pad & rotor bedding process is finished..
