After the tedious valley plate repair im itchy not to do anything for my F, so i go to walmart and find this RV drainage hose and channel it to my oil cooler via the bumper guard. Now my engine oilcooler has his personal fan 😄😄😄

Great project, amazing track performance. May I ask why you chose RR racing Discs for front, Figs discs for rear? Why not endless pads (ME20 or MX-72?).

Thanks for the praise! Theres no diffrence factor for rr racing or figs rotors both of them are great products, i just balance my support for them . Brake pads, thats what rr racing are using before and im happy with the performance. The one that you mention are quite expensive.

What resisterS did you use for the passenger seat? I am guessing it needs two, one for airbag and one for occupancy sensor?

Seems like i cant let go my daily TC3s, the most cleanest looking wheels on my F. But the forged RS-DF way to go for my 295s tires project. Will see....

Personally, I think your car will look miles better with those new rims. They are gorgeous!

Cody your right, this wheel is gorgeous! Fitment is great. No rubbing with my 285/30 tires unlike my wedsport 105X that needs spacers.Hope i can fit a 295/ 30 in the front.

Looks great. The black wheels really go well with the APR 300, perfect combo. What are the new wheel and tires specs? Sorry if I overlooked them.

What 285 tire are you running now? which 295 do you plan to run? Looking at the same sizes at the moment for myself.
