BBK = big brake kit ... basically bigger rotos and calipers ... there is some debate regarding how worthwhile it is for performance with respect to the stock system, but it sure does look cool

LMAO.... Yea no turbo for me lol. The 8 is pretty much finished for me. Plus i want to track the car this summer. IDK if the turbo will hold up to the abuse and summer heat.

I had them professionally painted... The only difference between the powder coat and paint is that powder coat NEVER fades. They chip as easy; the same. So I paid $0 for them to be painted. So thats the route I went. Also they got painted multi-layer with high quality paint (not that autozone stuff) so it shouldnt fade as easy. I know my cuzin who painted them did his on his car 3years ago and they still look brand new. I also believe stoptechs and racing brakes come painted originally not powder coated.

Yea I did a lot of reading on powder coating. Also if you do gettem powder coated they have to be taken completely apart, that was another headache I didn't want to deal with.

Same here. I know the StopTechs came with directions on how to assemble them; and each screw/ bolt had to be torqued etc.

Oh and I'm the only 8 in that picture because I was the only 8 cool enough to park with the FD's lol jk.

stop by my crib on the way there ... I am right off of 78, pretty much ON THE WAY ... I may even roll out to KDR with you since I have never been there.... we'll get lunch

Guys, I am having a strange fill-up issue .... the gas pump will shut off when my tank is only half full .... and I am scared to force it since the manual says not to do so ... has anyone else experienced this?

oh and do you think Dave can do PA state inspection?

dude, i think omar's brake kit is bigger and fatter ..it's good for downforce too, that's why he doesn't have to have sway bars because he has a BBK...LOL....
