OEM Brembo. If you look around you can find them about 40-50% off MSRP. Good thing the wheels are black, at least I think they are painted black, well... with these pads they are always black.

Nothing wrong with that at all.

Found one of my RC51 from my WSMC days...

Yeah, I road raced for a bunch of years. WSMC, USBA and CVRA. Mostly raced Heavyweight Twins class with various Honda RC51's, sometimes 750 Superbike. Also ran 600 class's with a Kawasaki ZX6R (in the photo above, that was at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele Utah - USBA). Won both of my...

GiroDsic only list the CT4V BW, not the 5.

And much easier to replace.

Free shipping from Texas, I had a coupon code and got a few $ off...

List price per strut is between $650 and $700, they can be found for about half that if you look around. Good to replace the strut upper mount and spring rubbers while your at it. Quote from the dealership was $2650, cost me about $800 to do it myself and I know everything is torqued...

At 63K Miles, it was time to replace both front Magna Ride struts on the Blackwing. Clunk under sharp rebound when stiffened up and they were both leaking. Picked up a cheap $100 spring compressor which made the job easy.

I like the lines on the SR more than the HTC and I am not a top down guy. Never been a fan of moon roofs or convertibles, Id rather have a coup any day, that's just me. I have looked into a few items to spiff up the engine some already. I had thoughts of headers and the pTR carbon intake but...

I looked at how much luggage I have packed in my ct4vbw over the last 2+ years, and nothing that would not fit in a C8. The ONLY thing is my road bike, I toss it in the back with the seats down now. I would need to set the frame in a bag and then into the passenger seat or just use the...

All good, the fire is 15 miles south of me, but on Lake Hughes Rd just to the north east of Castaic Lake, its currently burning a favorite Mountain Bike area we ride called Tapia Canyon. The fire is moving west toward the 5. The winds almost never blow north, so that's good.

I just turned 49 and am very physically active still. Getting in and out will be okay for a few more years haha. Hit the gym 4 to 5 days a week at work and road and mountain bike 2-3 times a week. At the moment I am able to take the wheels off my road bike and toss it in the back with the...

I have to admit, reading about all of the DTC issues and trans replacements some folks have had really makes me re-think. I know its only a small percentage, but I would hate to be one of those. The DTC filter and fluid maintenance is not a major issue for me, I can do the work in my garage...

Traffic has not been all that bad, but then again I pick my hours and usually go in at 4am and come home at 2 to avoid the worst of it. But there have been plenty of days it taken me 4 to 5 hours to get home.

Worse, Lake Hughes to the Miracle Mile area on Wilshire, across the street from the LaBrea Tar Pits. Have been doing that since 2007.

Ive considered an LC511 but I cant do a Lexus, an LFA would be the only Lexus I would own. Speaking about the LFA, that's the only car that bested me when I was really giving it my all on some local backroads, I had to slow down to let the car pass to see what the hell was kicking my ass...

Kids are grown and out of the house. I had a yellow C3 in my teens, kind of want another yellow vette. I just cant justify the cost of the 5BW and I kind of feel like its too similar to what I have now, I like to change things up a bit each car/truck. But a 5BW if the right deal came along...

I'm not a top down guy, never have been. I would rather have the window to see the engine, that's one of the things I love about the car.

The auto is a must for me, I could not drive the LA freeways and commute with a manual. Perhaps, but I kind of like the back end, baby got back! Here is the GM config tool rendering for the build I would order;
