It's pretty straightforward when I did it. It's easier to change them when the pistons are sticking out. Use a pick to pry out the old dust boots, then slip on the new dust boots. I removed the rotor and bolted the caliper back on so that I can work on removing the old boots and installing the...
I'm probably going to go with the Girodisc dust boot kit:
Girodisc Dust Boot Evasive motorsports
Just ordered a set of new pads too. I Currently have Project Mu Clubracer pads on my car. Tried ordering another set, but it's on backorder.
Going to try Paragon R5 front / Paragon P3 rear
Even though it's a good deal, you're still wasting your time and money on the HEL oil cooler. I'm considering the WOT oil cooler. That's the only product I see available that is worth buying.
Honestly, If I had to do it all over again, I would do PWR Radiator. But I'm stubborn and already went the CSF route. Adding an oil cooler should put less load on the radiator to cool down the coolant and oil.
FYI, the HEL oil cooler is mounted in front of the radiator, so that might not help...
I track my car and I do have the CSF Radiator and the Acuity Reverse flow hoses. Cooling has improved but car still overheats. I need to do a cool down after 4 laps. I recommend removing that bulky PRL intercooler which blocks airflow to the radiator. I'm thinking of adding an oil cooler down...
Hey Guys!
Sorry for the late response.
Changes I made this time around:
- Switched back to Stock intercooler
- Installed HPT cooling plate
Weather was hotter, cooling was improved with more airflow going into the radiator but car still overheats. At 75F ambient, the coolant temps get to 230F...
Track day tomorrow again at buttonwillow. Weather forecast says high is going to be 100F.
Put the stock intercooler back on and installed the WOT HPT Cooling Plate to replace the stock undertray. Let's see what happens!
Since you're a novice driver, I would keep the nannies on. This car rotates pretty well into the turns for a FWD car. I would suggest that you set it at +R mode straight up. Main thing is to be familiar with the track and learn the lines!! Watch youtube footage of buttonwillow and review the...
1 to 2 shifts are slower than I normally would shift in my previous car which was an FRS. I just had to adjust my shifting style with the FL5 which isn't a huge deal. I could still drive smoothly.
I had the opportunity to test this set up at Buttonwillow with ambient temps up to 95F last weekend. Unfortunately, the car ran into cooling issues. Coolant and oil temps were the highest I've seen and worse than before with stock radiator and intercooler
The first session wasn't that hot yet...
Anyone have this set up?
CSF Radiator + Acuity Reverse Flow Hoses + PRL intercooler
I am going to install these on my car and wanted to see if anyone has had experience with this setup at the track.
Thanks!
