Have you checked your wheel bearings for free play or the other thing could be maybe one shock has gone soft?
-
Handbrake Adjustment?
-
Yeah 265/35/18 are legal size wise but not legal if fitted to a 18x8" rim. A 8.5"-10" rim is needed for it to be legal.
-
They do wear a little quicker then the reds on the track but on the street they seam to be about the same.
-
My cars a full weight BF XR6T, Rotors 355mm Front + Rear, Calipers PBR-M 6 pot Front, 4 pot Rear. Price wise they cost the same. I ordered both sets from England, It about about 1/2 the price they wanted here for them.
-
The blues have more cold bite then the reds and maintain more through out the temp range as well.
-
when you were swapping over parts did you change the brake master cylinder or booster at all? If you have it could be one of the push rods out of adjustment. Other wise if could be jammed sliders on the calipers.

EBC Red aren't designed to handle constant high heat from race use, However they are well suited to shorter events like sprints and hill climbs. If you want a great road/track pad try the EBC Blues, I went from red to blues and the bite of the blues are miles better throughout the temp range.

What make/style of diff bush are you using?
-
Hay dave where are you located? I've got the LSD out of mine, Less the 50,000k's old yours for $200 if your interested.
-
Have you checked the earth strap on the right hand side of the engine?
-
you can get fully adjustable top arms from Nolathane, I've got a set in mine.
-
My PBR's are great I've never had any problems with them. Ap calipers are good but I've never liked the idea of not having dust boots around the pistons. It not just rotor size but pad size too, The more pad area you have the less concentrated the heat is.
-
yeah I've seen cracks like that, obviously the rotors are getting way too hot. Are you running 6 or 4 pots on the front?
-
Here this is mine with the rear muffler removed.
-
Yeah both doors need replacing, I got both complete left doors for $500. The car didn't come off too badly, but you should have seen the rear wheel. A spectator caught the whole thing on film too.
-
My day so far.
-
Thanks Even If I was to try and do a dodgy, My premium would cost just as much to fix it my self. Thanks, I'll go have a look.
-
Well I crashed my car today, I clipped the tyre wall. Anyone got 2 good left doors and a BF3 left side skirt for sale?
-
What springs do you have in the rear? Also is that a 22mm sway bar your using?
-
Bad fuel maybe? Or lifters pumping up?
-
Have you checked your intake manifold gasket for any splits/cracks? Also which plugs are showing rich/lean?
-
Nah, I'm running 2 piece rotors front and rear.
-
I do a lot of circuit racing and subsequently my front wheel bearings are due to be replaced. Obviously genuine would be the best option, but should I get Falcon or Territory bearings? I would think that maybe the Territory bearings may be stronger, But I don't know for certain. Does anyone else know? Regards Mitch
-
Well I would say how much you remove would be determines by how much you need to cool the brakes, My rotor temps went from 420°c to 340°c when I removed all the flaps.
