Gents, how would you prioritize list? I know everyone is different but just interested to know rational behind prioritized position. Thx in advance

 

Personally I would do brake pads, fluid and cooling first. Then tires, then all the other stuff.

Looks like a road racing set up with XP12/8s? I was considering going from XP10/8 to XP12/8, but I'm hearing this setup may be too aggressive when used with street tires. Basically grip will come in rapidly as you get on the brakes, and the wheels can lock up before the weight transfers. This puts you in ABS control too early, expends stopping distance and is challenging to modulate with the pedal. Since you have Pilot SS on your list this may be something to consider.

Also if this is a road racing setup, I would recommend sticking with blank rotors versus slotted. Slotted are typically commended for street use, not track use.

Lots of cool stuff on your list, I like it!

 

thx 5.0 monster for your thoughts. After reading I think I'll go with xp10/xp8 too :-)

Pre bed option is also now available for all Carbotech brake pads. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Please call or email us with any questions.

 

For your set up that would be the best bet the Xp12 really bite hard.

 

1) 14" brembos if you don't already have them
2) skip the slotted rotors
3) brake fluid
4) pads . . . beware of track only pads; do you also drive the car on the street?
5) stainless lines
6) tires -- MPSS probably about the best you can get and also be good on street
7) seat and harness

assume you already have stiffer springs with lowering, struts/shocks to go with them, adjustable upper strut mounts, beefed up sway bars

tail-light sequencer seems to not belong on this list

 

I'll give the generic lame answer. When I nod my cars I make a list of all the work, like you have done. I then make a list of what lets my car down most. I did the steeda shifter bracket and boss shift **** first. Then I did a full suspension. These were the 2 most tragic things in my car. I followed that with whatever else bothers me most when I drive her hard after that.

 

ok, I revised my list and made chassis and interior purchases. I already have adjustable Tokico D-spec struts/shocks suspension. I'll purchase the remaining items early next year. Thx again for your thoughts guys.
