I researched posts in this and a few other web sites about alignment set up for track use and settled on those numbers for combined street/track settings. As it turned out the rear passenger side tire began to degrade to fast, sounding almost like tread separation. So I took it back to Big Chief and they set alignment back to stock.

Here is the info from R1 Concepts in the Group Buy forum. Seems like good price also.

Thanks again for the input.

 

no problem and good thing you got it fixed before it did more damage. The rotors look nice. do they come with lifetime warranty? make sure they do if you buy them or otherwise just look into the website i provided. and if you do buy from the website, i recommend upgrading the pads to ceramic as they are much quieter lol. either way you go, im sure you'll notice a difference in braking. my original rotors were actually warping and the whole car would shake when i slowed down, it was bad. those rotors and the bhr ignition kit are probably the best investments i made on the car for value wise.

 

I saw this cable at best buy to let me plug into RCA jacks to have an auxilary input for my radio....Does the radio have any RCA jacks on it?

 

no. It just has a big plug in the back for a MD player. I have some pictures somewhere from when I took it out.

 

That's what it looks like, minus the axxess module in the center. I put that in there for my ipod plug. Normally there's just a big empty space, I guess that's where the MD player goes.

 

there is a DIY on this site for adding them. I did it and it works great. It is, however, a bit risky if your not good at soldering.

 

Thanks for all the info...Think Im just gonna keep listening to satellite radio.

 

the axxess module just plugs in. No need for solder. And it shows song title and artist on the HU. Works great. I think they make a 3.5mm aux jack too, but I just have the ipod jack. Wish I would've done the aux also now...

 

Thanks, I'm checking out the axxess mudule now.

 

interesting, let me know how it goes, i would like to ave a 3.5mm input in my car.

 

Just thought I'd share.

 

never seen a car show that had a fishing tournament

 

That's the westside for you baby!

 

the s2000 club is having a meet to night (4/30/11) i am going to check it out 6:30 at Salsarita's (River City Market Place)

 

Currently in North Carolina for Deals Gap Rotary Rally. Its completely badass. AND had some intense driving out here. I was able to keep pace with several Fd's and a 911 turbo, and actually put quite a gap between myself and a 20b. All in all a fantastic weekend! I do however need to upgrade my coolant system, couple runs on the dragon and had to stop to cool down

 

lucky dog

 

What do you have in mind for the upgrade? I know we can get better radiators and you can do a 40/60 ratio of coolant and water which will help lower temps safely. My friend did that in his car but he had 35/65 and noticed better cooling in his car. he's been running that for over a year on his daily driver and no problem. just a though.

 

what time is the meet at the pizza place?

 

Hah, planned too far ahead. Everyone forgot about it.

 

boo

 

Well, for a daily drive, the coolant system is fine. However, 7000rpm's + sustained for 11 miles tends to be a bit much for the car. By next year I plan on having a bigger radiator and a better flowing water pump. Also considering a vented hood. I still have a year to plan before it happens again

 

Yeah i've seen the upgraded water pump in the GB for sale but it had some draw backs at the time as it was race freindly but not a dd. well since your considering a vented hood..... you can try it on your own first to save some money. this way if you mess up, you were planning on getting a new one anyway but if it comes out good..... money in the bank. youtube and google has some diy for this.

 

eh, not really interested in hacking at my stock hood. I am not in any way good at body work. I can screw panels on and line them up, but cutting, sanding painting, I leave that to the people with the appropriate tools and equipment.

 

I still have a dual 10" sub box (no subs) that I will give to the first person that want's to come pick it up on the north side.
