I just replied to all PM's fyi.
Sorry been trying to get cars out of here before holidays for past 2 days. Rishie |
bump, whats the word on this? did we make the cut?
|
Yes we made it. Order is being submitted at this very moment.
I'll be providing shipping details early next week. Thanks, Rishie |
Your Inbox is full Rishie,
I am sending them to Ewa Beach, HI 96706 Can you give the info via PM please? Thanks buddy. |
ok gotcha.
Rishie |
update?
|
Sales rep, steve went on vacation for a week. Your calipers are the only thing I'm waiting on. I'll get more updates for you by weds when he returns. They were to be receiving them this week btw.
Thanks, Rishie |
And for me and my new toy?
|
ohh man sorry to cause a wait O_O
|
So steve,
Did you want to wait for the newest caliper or go with the RB440 and use shims? Please do send me PM or something when you get a chance. Rishie |
hey, your PM box is full. i do not believe i have an issue.. I'm not using the OEM rotors, I have the RacingBrake 2pc. Curved Open-Slot rotors, purchased from you!
|
understood, there is still an issue. All OEM rotors are 24mm thick, even the RB ones.
So option: 1. Get now but use 2mm shims on either side caliper 2. Wait til Feb when the ideal caliper is released for the OEM Thin 24mm rotors. Rishie |
will the price you quoted me still hold for the new version?
|
Yes of course bro. I think you should wait cause RB didn't want you to go with RB440 caliper since it's designed for a thicker rotor. you can potentially lose some bite and piston stroke without those shims. With too much shim you might get some vibration out of the pad i'd think.
do the wait game for a month and you'll have their latest and greatest. Too make you feel better i know RB has moved away from Non staggered piston or diameter arrangement to staggered piston diameter and arrangement on the newest calipers. This is just how Endless makes their kits and many of the more affordable brake companies are following suit. Rishie Rishie |
awesome, i can wait, no rush :)
|
Ok cool, i've notified them.
Rishie |
i just got off the phone with racingbrake. he says actually the kit you are speaking of made for wider rotors is for the rx7, as well as the the new piston design. the rx8 calipers will not change and the black ones i want are in stock and can be shipped out just as soon as you let him know! i apologize if there has been any miscommunication on my part. please let me know, thanks!
|
Man those guys are confusing the hell out of me. I'm gonna make the call to get this straight. I have emails from Warren the President stating otherwise, maybe they are getting their signals crossed over there. My apologies but i will get to the bottom of this.
Thanks, Rishie |
not sure who i spoke with, but he said he had emailed you just yesterday about something. let me know how it goes!
|
I wanted to update everyone. I've been getting partial shipments, bits and pieces from RB. I've got all the rotors, just missing some of the brake pads.
I've received tracking from RB on some stuff showing up today and then another shipment showing up on the 25th. SO, between tomorrow and Monday everything should be shipped out. I should be receiving the Caliper kit on one of these days as well Stephen. Thanks, Rishie |
thanks for the update!
|
hey rishie...
i just ordered new rims....33 offset up front... how can we tell if the RB calipers will work? thx |
Well if you can tell me the amount of distance you have between the Caliper and the inside of the wheel spoke I should be able to figure it out once I get the calipers at the end of the week.
Rishie |
i dont have that info and not sure where to get it...but i can give you the wheels....
Volks GTFs top secret edition gold 19x8.5 +33 front also, would they work with EBC 3GD rotors...i have them on the car now..they replaced oem without issue...still running the oem calipers |
Mmm that won't give me certainty but i can cross reference the disk you ordered.
When are you going to receive the wheels? Rishie |
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 06:16 PM. |
