So nice since redline came out with the mt-85 in the past had to mix two formulas. Swap out gear oil next for that real buttery feel. Did both Zs last weekend and brake and clutch swap for some dot 4. Oh...never mind those funky bleeders by mita its a piece of crap. Old fashion two man bleeder job.

im on OEM pads as well, but the SS lines are another valuable mod. i cant say how great they are. smooth and consistent pedal feel makes the car feel entirely different. our sport brakes are pretty good as it is, but with the SS lines it feels AMAZING
