nah Phil - i really love my GTR wing - just seems to be of very poor quality thats all! then again i was doing a 130km when it decided to dettach!

how to tell if they need skimming ...... only changing rear for now - i aint made of money at the moment!

agh i hate driving wit my mum "Lauren we are doing 110km in a 70 zone .... u realise that? .... thats 40km over"

"thank u mum glad u can solve mathematical problems"

"*insert lecture about losing license here*"

*repeat process when entering new speedzone*

AGHHHHHH

yeah my mum suffers from car sickness and is a natural born whinger! *must have some english blood in her* :(:)

but u talk to mum and she exaggerates everything!! she sounds like she drags every car and is a total rev head ....... but in reality she drives like a pussie!

Paul yeah i know but apparently i have 80% front brakes left and no back brakes ...... so considering those odds im replacing the back first :(

ive got it printed out on my last service report - front 80% rear 30% hmmmm i think they would be down 10% since then. If i take them to a brake blace to have them skimmed and ask them about the fronts ...... of coarse they are going to tell me to change them for some extra $$$ :)

    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
    • For DBA, check out their guide table here. https://dba.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Direct_Replacement-Guide-2021.2.pdf   Additionally they have some other guides and info on how to make sure you choose the right pad.
    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
