I wonder if you have some air in the system. How old is the fluid? I use the same but bleed it every year at least, it seems ok.

Me, @KevinA and @DebbieJ travel from the wrong side of London. With any motorsport you have to be prepared for a road trip really!

I think the car will look great on those wheels, suspensions looks really good quality too. Before fitting and paying for alignment etc it might be worth getting into contact with HKS and asking what spring rates they are good with. I did this with KW so I knew the new springs I fitted would work ok. The damping may be great and you may get away with it, but 10kg would seem to be really hard! I don't think anyone racing in the sprint series is above 7kg on either end of the car.

Could well be the dealer who has fitted them.

You've started it now.

Depends on stock at Reyland and AP, mine took over 3 weeks.

You might want to check with @will300 before sending calipers.

Good luck with a turbo kit and OEM calipers on a track day. You'll need brake pads made out of Kryptonite to last a 20 min session.

You're right not to accept those, they're taking the piss. A number of years ago I almost bought an S2000 until the Honda dealer replaced the worn out Bridgestones with Ling Longs and couldn't understand why I wasn't jumping for joy. Actually refused to change them, haha.

Says it has expired or reached a usage limit.
-
Have you got a code for these @Lucas@PartBox? Could do with a spare cosworth air filter as well.
-
They are meant to be pretty decent, but I'd find it a bit weird to buy a Chinese product via the US. You're effectively paying import taxes twice.
-
That's good to know.
-
The Avo uses the OEM airbox unlike the other turbo kits, so draws in air from outside the engine bay, which is preferable. The turbos seem to be of lesser quality though.

I suppose on the positive side it'll compliment the 80's style clock on the dash.
-
If you're paranoid wouldn't a better option be to change some of the alarm settings? Iirc you can set it so you need a PIN code to start the car.

DIY Tuning Development UEL Manifold review

Nice one. I could do with a cat back but always find something more "sensible" to spend my money on. -
DIY Tuning Development UEL Manifold review

For comparison this was mine with an Equal length FA20CLUB manifold at abbey, the rest stock apart from an air filter. The torque on yours seems a lot smoother, and higher. I seem to have a bit more power. I did the same as you, DIY fit. I tested with and without the bulb resonator and found the on-off throttle response was noticeably crisper with it fitted. -

Chart line says that, but yellow figure is 181. I think the actual figure might be unreadable in the green box. -

What was the end power figure? Struggling to make sense of that output. -

Agreed it's rough, I refitted my OEM wheels with Primacy's for a day there last year and it was a good decision. Even they took a pasting. Dented my wing on one of those "soft cones" -
I think I got my rear OEM discs off a Toyota eBay shop quite reasonably. Iirc Fensport also sell them.
-
Using the throttle pedal?

Good luck

Doesn't sound like your typical easy pad swap . Typical to happen before a track day!
