Nothing in there either. :tup: Man.......that OS Giken lube is thick. :icon14: I'm going to leave it drain over night. Oh, there is about 2,000 miles on this lube since I installed the OS Giken diff and cooler. So it was over due for a change.

nice job duuuuude.

Hey Russ;
I figured out what the problem is with those Bushing sizes being too large :eek:
You were supposed to get the rear “Mid-Links” instead :ugh2:
It’s already got the Bushing installed :tup:

Yeah, Z1 will be my last option. Im a baller on a budget! lol I budgeted 2k for a set with rotors, but if I can find a good deal, then its more gas money for the Z.
Theres also a site that Ghostvette gave me a link to that sells rebuilt ones, thats an option, but after getting them powdercoated, it might cost the same as new ones?

madwi 02-03-2019 06:02 AM
I have no idea if it holds up but you might be able to spray them yourself? I think EW did that to save a few bucks.

bunk 02-03-2019 06:02 AM
I have a local guy who runs a small business selling performance parts. Hes my go to guy because he gives me great deals on just about anything I need not just performance parts, https://www.kenjigarage.com/ (shameless plug), he told me he couldnt get Akebonos. Are those brakes exclusive to dealers?

If you need a better deal, let me know. He gives me good deals because I can pay him cash. Might be able to knock off a few more bucks that way.

Nah, its right in line for what I was looking to pay. I thought the shipping was going to be shitty but it was only $15. Cant argue with that. :driving:

Yeah, hes a good kid. Pretty young, I really hope hes successful
