QUOTE (cmspaz @ Jan 18 2011, 09:24 AM) | Wow, didn't realize you guys had to cut stuff up to fit a rear strut bar... ours fit nicely in the trunk with a hole cut on either side in the liner. Looks good though, I bet there really is a big difference there.
I wish I had a track day upcoming... Season doesn't start here until April |
We dont actually, Its just Carbings design. Their bars go up and through the rear trunk lid. All the other run though the trunk. I noticed almost all of Carbings braces besides the front strut bar require some modifications to be made or else panels/seats have to be moved. The cuts are small and look worse in the picts, but you cant even see one the seats are back in. But with the other Carbing I have on the way all that stuff will be getting taken out anyway : evil grin:

Thanks, I know a friend who has alot of their braces and I like the quality fitment and the function is more present then other company braces I've had.
edit: The Subaru is now or family race car. It will be Time Attacked and Autocrossed by me, my wife and daughter. I picked up a GC8 as a daily driver and my daugher decided on a 06 STi for her car...(momma mad lmao).

My wife and I notice a lot of that with our GT-R too... We can only hope that if we have children that turn out into future driving enthusiasts they'll learn quickly how to separate true fans and sycophantic pissants who wouldn't know a coilover from a camshaft.
Your ride seems clean. Welcome.

If you plan on racing the car, some Endless brake pads and RF650 should be in order too.
Sorry, I had to put my shameless plug.
I am a huge fan of Carbing stuff too.

For brakes we already looking into a AP Racing kit or the Stop Tech ST-60. Endless is cool and all (mostly bling), but new parts are not cost effective and the wait time is ridiculous....even from authorized vendors.

Use whichever calipers you please. The brake pads that come with those calipers are ok at best. If you need to upgrade the calipers really depends on a lot of things. Most effective upgrade is pads and fluid on blank or slotted disks.

I already know that. . . I just have experience and know what parts I want, and Endless isnt on the list for reasons. Pads of choice will be Ferodo DS3000 Brake Pad or DTC-70 for sure. I got a trans and engine coming in from Canada so the rest wil be figured out later.
