I just thought the tune may have been backed off a little if the clutch was slipping?

Depending on how severe the clutch slip is, that would mean no fine tuning in that area or check for ping etc etc (although ping is power). Tune could have well been pulled back to avoid potential unknowns.

I'd be calling Lane and asking him what his thoughts are since he knows what was put in (or not put in) the tune.

Also dyno sheet makes your penis larger on forums.

Default Brembo test fit

Went over to Dave's to test fit the SSR's onto his brembo's...


Sorry for the woobly pic. Was very excited. I guess I best be ordering them up huh? They clear quite comfortably which is a big relief.

I will look around for some matching second hand rears + rotors (will source from GSL) + any other gear needed. A new brembo rear kit with the same contents as the front is $200 more. $1600 for fronts, $1800 for rears...yeah nah.

If anyone knows the added stuff please post it up (dogbone adapters, etc).

Massive thankyou to Master for letting me test fit. Very much appreciated good sir.

Cheers,
Shane.

Much easier than doing rotor/calliper swap onto your car.....

The rears will bolt straight up Shane, you will just need to drill off the dust plate!

Shane - I've just done the sourcing of rotors pads etc. got some good pricing.

Have PMd mobile number - call me and I'll tell you what I know.

Have also seen a few rear only Brembos on import monster and fleabay.
