STILLEN brake cooling kit

I didn't have much luck using a temp gun for accurate readings as things cooled down a lot on the way into the pits thanks to the cool down lap.

What did work was the rotor temp paint and the caliper temp stickers. They are a bit on the pricey side but it was good data. There is a track day in 2 weeks but I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it with my current work schedule, still have to rebuild the calipers, change the rotors, install the ducts.

Also have to replace the ball joints in the SPC camber arms, mine have a bit of play in them now.
