Ive been researching for a while now.. not necessarily minimal brake dust but just bets overall break setups and ive read alot of good things about the ebc pads.. but I still have a while to decide so its all good..
On a side note, I got my flywheel put in today and what a difference! Car accelerates soooooo much faster, I love it.. But heres the downfall.. Went to work at 4, my car wasnt done yet, so dad brough it to me at work at 6 after it was done.. co-worker goes outside on her break, comes back in saying she smelled gas.. Didnt think anything of it, got off at 11, walked outside and we could both smell it.. leaned under my car and the smell got really strong.. pulled the car ahead, whipped out a flashlight and sure enough, huge gas leak.. found where it is on the car, seems to only be a gas line but I couldnt really tell cause it was dark out.. Going to call the garage in the morning and se eif theyc an squeeze me in to have a look at it tomorrow.. So that kind of put a damper on my day, and theres my rant for the day
Ill update tomorrow night on what I find out..Manser

Fidanza 8lbs flywheel. It came out of an ITR and only had 10 thousand clicks on it.
From my understanding it was a return and a feed line that were broken and a vacuum line. I worked last nigth and dad had to go pick the car up again so I havent had a chance to go out and get the work order yet but I will monday, it cost me another 148$ though..
and thats why you learn how to work on cars yourself, was about a 5 dollar fix i bet

Yeah, its really something I should learn to do.. costing me s**t tons lately just in labour for stuff that I probably couldve done with the right research.. Its just that I dont have another vehicule and i work every weekend and have school all week so I dont really have time if anything goes wrong to wait around for the car..
U go to school during the summer?
