No mouseover for you.




















I just ripped off and tore down all four calipers today and dropped them off for powdercoating. Just doing a red on the stock calipers. Surprisingly enough, for having 145K miles, only minimal parts need replacing. The front pin bushings need replacing, there was one torn boot on a rear pin bushing, and that's about it. All the shims and springs are good, the pistons and boots are fine, I was rather surprised.

SHould have them back on Sunday or Monday and back on Monday for sure as I'm back to work on Tuesday. Pic to come obviously.

But of course!!!!! Just doing the standard red though. Once I get my hands on the GT4 calipers, that's when the nice colors will come out.

I did discover two crappy things today. Shredded the CV boot on the drivers side, and the radiator drain cock was leaking, though I think a line rubbed the plug loose.
