Re: Big brakes (Psychobroker)

No they are just like any caliper or pad. ! caliper is 130. You need 2 so that is 260. Pads are a full set of 4 so you need one 42.99. So it cost me 315 with shipping for calipers and pads and 78 dollares for stock 13 inch cobra rotors. When you see 4 on the calipers that refers to the piston count ...

Re: Alignment specs (trdvibe)

i take it that is in degrees? I did my trans am on these specs. Those you cage are very conservative.A: A table in the Camaro & Firebird Perforamnce Handbook for 3rd Generation cars lists the following recommendations: Caster Camber Toe Total (deg) (deg) (in) L R L R Street +4 +4.5 -.5 -.5 3/32 ...

Re: Camber Anyone?!? (MadBill)

Camber is an issue on these cars when dropped. After my install i have a pulling problem. It changes with acceleration/deceleration telling me that one wheel is off. Pulling is constant and is increased with braking. Alignment was perfect before. Instantly changed after install.

Alignment specs

I was wondering if anyone knew where to find the stock alignment specs for the vibe. I lowered my car and was going to fabricate a jig to set camber and caster. I dont know what the stock specs are. This info could be veryuseful in racing scca which i plan on. Adjustment of the stock specs can give ...

Re: Big brakes (Faultline)

so far i am not impressed with any i have seen out there. They are all basically a gay offset bracket with bigger rotors. I am going to use at least pbrs or something better. I will also be crossdrilling and chamfering them then stress relieving and balancing the rotors. I just am not impressed.

Re: 350z exhaust. (trdvibe)

I have had the exhaust on for a week tomorrow and will be taking pics tomorrow. So far i am unhappy with the sound. I need to install the front resonator which i ommited at first. I cut the stock exhaust at the rear of the cat and fabricated flanges out of 3/8 inch stainless and went fom there to th...

Re: Spacers (MadBill)

I really think that the load increase is not significant enough to cause concern. I have installed them and all i have to say is that they look bad (removed). I feel a definite difference in stability also. I have had them on for a solid 2 weeks now and i just have to clear up a fender clearance pro...

Re: Big brakes (MadBill)

I know what you are saying about the diameter changing the braking abilites. I am just hoping that 13 inch rotors themselves in the front help the definite change since i installed 18 inch wheels. I will also be upgrading the back shortly so that should compensate. I was also going to install a wilw...

Spacers

I am making a pair of bolt on rear 1.25 inch spacers to match the front. Has anyone else done this and have they had any rubbing. I am going to space the front out .25 inch possibly also. Not sure yet.
