No mention of brake upgrade options...It surprises me that there were no options for an upgrade in FG's when there was in B-Series. To the best of my knowledge you couldn't option brembos on a non fpv b series? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calculator say 4 mm more inside and 16mm more poke. lol And looks like your running crazy camber? My aim was like -0.5 camber with 265s on front. Would that promote more understeer though?

Enjoyable. Something about fresh oil gets the ocd pumpingAnd I also found that the two hose clamps on the intake muffler were loose!! Do these things loosen over time with the heat/floggings or did whoever touched it last leave em loose?
