John, are you going on the Tuesday drive which was supposed to be the crazy coffee thing.

Or will you be going to the next GM garage day at Kris's place.....if you are let me know as you may have read that I sold the GT Spec bar to Kris and I need to get it to him.

I asked Andy and he said he would deliver it but I have to drive to his place which would be my second option.


Let me know.

Coffee Crazy got changed to Tuesday? Thought it was Sat. Feb 2nd. Last I knew they were talking 12noon or 6pm. Need to check the latest. If it's on Sat at noon, I was considering going. Any other day time not good for me. If I'm going, no problem giving Kris GT bar. Haha...that was one of the quickest sales I've seen on a non-for sale thread...lol.

Really!!! ... Where did you get them from? You will love them... Also, buy some StopTech rear SS lines... Noticable difference = firm pedal feel...

Congrats on the purchase... Bring them to the next GTG... I want to see if they are radial mount...

I got mine from AZC...

Yeah...guess it stayed for 6pm. Not rolling to that one. I hate hyw12 at night. It scares the ____ out of me.
Plus think it's going to be raining Sat night too. Bet you a nickel we read of another fatality over the week-end on the 12

Fortunately for us, our cars come stock with EBD (electronic brake distribution) which takes care of the bias.

From personal experience, I haven't noticed anything (besides pedal feel). The brakes have been on my car for some time now.

Hope that helps.

Just finished cleaning the car and notice something...All this rain and driving on the highway seriously messed up my front. Spotted a few new chips on my bumper and oh yah..hit 3 rocks that left chips on my windshield when I was going to SJ yesterday during the heavy rain. Im so mad...it's so hard to keep your baby nice and new when it's a daily driver. Well looks like I'm definitely kitting out my car in the near future! AUGHH !!!!!!! ok I'm done =)
