Mike, you should look into jQuery. It's an open source Javascript library that simplifies regular day-to-day Javascript, as well as AJAX, DOM manipulation and effects, animationand, and etc. You don't have to be a web developer to use it. It's simple enough that web designers use it too. You just have to take some time to learn it. There is plenty of documentation and tutorials on their website and there rest of the web.

The majority of rich content websites use jQuery. You probably have forgotten about it by now, but I used it when I made that demo website for you a few months back. I mainly used it on the image slider and a menu hover effect.

Good luck. :tiphat:

^^^Thanks! :)

yeah my mouseover menu on that site is handled using only CSS. I've used a lot of those java scripts for things like that though.

here's the ONLY menu image used for it.

and the code:
Some of the things you're able to do now is awesome. I remember coding javascript functions and creating images for menus with 4 different states. Annoying. Now it's easy :D

Ok enough computer jargon, back on topic. :)

A slightly used set of StopTech slotted front and OEM rear rotors on their way thanks to ChrisSlicks!

Are there better rotors that work with the stock BBK yet, without having to buy a full kit?

nice you found some :D

You run upgraded pads and fluids on your Z right? When I was tracking my car I noticed a little pedal flutter (not ABS, I know what that feels like) later in the day but I never had any fade. They got very firm but still bit well after maybe 10 mins of full speed driving too, which I blame the pads for.

Yes there are a few aftermarket rotor replacements for the stock brake kit, Rotora and StopTech to name a few. There are no 2-Piece rotors available yet though which is a bummer, they are all 1-piece replacements.

Yes I run Motul RBF600 fluid, Challenge stainless steel braided lines, and Carbotech XP10 front, XP8 rear pads on the track. Same setup on the street, but with stock pads.

Even with the Carbos you run the same rotors? No wonder you need new ones. I've heard that with them you have to seat the pads every time you switch or you'll have issues with residue.

Do my assumptions on the issues I'm having seem correct? It definitely made me trust my car a little less when powering into turns and I want to avoid it next time.

Yeah same rotors for both sets of pads. Ideally you would have one set of rotors paired for each set of pads, but thats a pain in the *** and expensive.

Its hard to say what your car is doing just based off of that info without feeling it myself, but if your pedal didn't get soft then its most likely the pads.

yeah I had a little bounce while light braking (fluid) and then after a while it would get real firm (pads)

I'll probably be getting something a little more double duty in the pads dept.

I'd heard the 600 fluid is prone to holding moisture and requires bleeding and refilling from time to time... ?

Another bad habit of mine is not bleeding my brakes or doing routine fluid changes. :)

I have not bled/changed my Motul fluid since March with no issues.

sweet thanks :tiphat:

You might want to do that when you swap the rotors on. A year is the absolute max you want to run a high temp fluid. After 1 year you're probably at about 2% moisture and boiling point has been reduced 35%.

Oh I know. I SHOULD at least bleed the brakes after every event, but I am lazy lol.

I just remembered though, I did swap the fluid when I changed the lines in September. Forgot about that.

Good thing you're not driving your Z then anymore :stirthepot::facepalm:

:rofl2:
