As per title, made 300 bhp on my Supercharged gt86. The manifold is a work of art! Includes overpipe More details can be found here https://www.cgrautomotive.co.uk/product-page/toyota-gt86-subaru-brz-exhaust-manifold-supercharged Because it's been in the car it's not as shiny as in some of the pics but can be polished back to this state. Otherwise in excellent condition 500 plus post or you can collect from Norwich Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Dont believe there was any tracking changes but hard to find proper detail. https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/topic?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eft86club%2Ecom%2Fforums%2Fshowthread%2Ephp%3Ft%3D114625&share_tid=114625&share_fid=48281&share_type=t&link_source=app Does sound like the ride is more refined on the later cars.

Brake pedal firm at first but goes soft if holding pressure
sentinal187 replied to Adi's topic in Mechanical
So I have speed bleeders on my brembos, every other trackday I bleed some off to keep it fresh as the fluid just sits in a hot cailper. Takes 30 mins tops. I'd be tempted to try that and see if that helps, also you're banging in the trackdays (bravo!). The fact you're getting pedal sag makes me think the fluid is giving up. Once you boil fluid it's more prone to sagging later. I just use cheap dot 5.1 as by definition it has a better boiling point that dot 4 (not better than the racing stuff mind) with the view of refreshing it by bleeding as I say. As you may already know, brake fluid is hydrosopic so it ages over time, the harder you are on it the shorter it lasts. Another thing to try is adding some ducting to your brakes if you have not got this already and for the cost of it I would get rid of those rubber lines! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk -

How many track days are you doing a year? Did you flush the fluid? Are you using millers dot 4 300? Without being rude, how are you braking? It's better to brake harder for a shorter period of time versus less pressure for a longer amount of time. I have seen many people on track days riding the brakes then wondering why they get fade.

Bad mc would give you an issue all the time in my view, not just when your on track. Do you drive the car solely on track or do you use it as a road car as well? How long are you running out on track? 20, 30 mins etc? Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk -

Point is braking technique affects the amount of heat generated, point is maintenance affects braking performance as well. If you go for a full blown race pad you compromise on the road - which is fine if the OP wants that. There are many people of the forum using fast road style pads with no issue on track and in the sprint series. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk -

Depends how you brake and how long for. At snetertton, 130 mph down to 40-50 never any issues with fade. I had ds2500s on the rx7 and no issues on that either. I am on road tyres and I run 20min sessions on track. Fundamentally these cars are not heavy so dont need much to slow them down. If you're on semis the pads will be working harder however Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk -

Other question is, the pads you mention on both front and rear? Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk -

I have brembos on mine, using performance friction z rate atm. Will switch to ds2500s shortly - only due to personal preference. Never had fade on either across different cars on trackdays. How recently was the fluid changed? Within the last year? The fact you've had it across two different pad types makes me curious. Personally after few trackdays I bleed off some fluid from the calipers to keep what's in there fresh. I would be tempted to bleed some off for two reasons, in case of any trapped air and to check its colour. If there is no air and the fluid looks fresh you know the issue lies elsewhere. After that check you disk wear, although I assume your bbk is fairly new? Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk -

Have you got any power graphs, I am curious to see the torque versus a supercharged car as I expect it's a good bump up Edit : read first post lol Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Agree, I have the brembo setup front and rear. SC and oil cooler at the front, stripped out at the back, 255 and 235 ps4 tyres, I gobble people up in the braking zones. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Thanks, worth working it out for the car in question tho. That assumes OEM car. Stock suspension, stock rake, stock tyres sizes, no weight reduction or other mods which affect weight balance like adding a turbo etc to the front. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
