Looking awesome mrbananas!
I picked up a pair of nitto nt555's for my rears. They don't stretch as much as i'd like them too, but they're quiet and pretty solid

Indirectly, this is for my car

I made a DIY pad washer to make cleanup easier. I haven't tried it out yet, but I think it will work well.






This is my ~$20 version of the $135 Grit Guard Universal Pad Washer shown below.

Today: Drove across island to gun range. Drove back home.

In the past few days: got new tires installed, shaved rear passenger fender (fixing mistake from body shop), put wheels back on, lost my driver side rain gutter moulding on the freeway and washed my car.

a lot and absolutely nothing. The goal was to swap out the old TB, which has the MAF right on top of it, with a shiny new one and place the MAF in the IC pipe. I did that and set the TPS.. doesn't run. Okay, so I put the old TB back on (plugged MAF hole), leaving the MAF down on the IC pipe, and set the TPS again; still won't run. This leads me to believe the polished TB might not be the problem. So I took the maf back off the IC pipe and plugged that hole, put it back on the TB, set the TPS, runs fine. wtf Now it's back to exactly how it was before and I don't get it. I thought the maf was supposed to work best before the TB. Anyways, now I'm stuck with this stupid/ugly TB, which actually looks worse because I got RTV all over it from plugging the hole.
