Good answer!

I'll bring the hammer.

:bellyroll:

But seriously, if the tools were available, and there's someone willing, that has done it already, I'd be glad to help. I've done brakes but never on the 5th gen, would be good to have experience close by.

Are you planning full fluid change also?

Have to ... Pete won't let me run anything but his brake fluid that is apparently made from gold and costs somewhere near the neighborhood of 80 bucks a bottle....

Hmmmmm, guess since he is changing my brake lines I might have to be sporting some of this liquid Gold huh???

Oh dude, you have no idea... Just wait till Pete gives you the "brakes pads that out last your rotors" lecture...

Here's the fluid he wants me to use. Seems pretty bad ass.

Wet boiling point is crazy high!

Chris, you will need 3 bottles of that brake fluid...

and it only has a 6 month life.... Crazy expensive!

( I had THAT talk with Pete as well)... LOL

exactly.

:thumbsup: he said even if you left it in there it would be better than anything else on the market.

:laugh:

wow.......I am really not looking forward to when Pete sits me down for "the talk"

Hmmm, guess I got a week to prepare... LOL...

I went ahead and shot him a PM saying that you two had some questions about brakes and such..

:wave:

Cool.... I have 12 hours to kill next Thursday... I'm pretty sure we'll have some conversation...

We've already had some....

You may not understand how "passionate" Pete is about his brakes... He's even got Speedster thinking about a set. :laugh:

son of a....

...motherless goat?

.... jackal?

If and when I decide to do the West Texas Open Road Race, I'll most assuredly be looking for upgraded brakes...

Until then, I'll have braided hoses coutesy of Pete, and I may put some better pads on...

But I'm not road racing the car so the brakes have lots of time to cool off after every use...

:thumbsup:

Yeah... I had that talk... and ended up buying a ZL1 instead...

Now it's time for another talk...:facepalm:

Yes. 'The Talk' at the PRI show. :D Use these brakes or die... We know Pete just wants the best for us. ;)

You will be assimilated by "Darth Braker". His force is strong...

Yes, his new topic: "Brakes for the ZL1" :laugh:

LOL, good one... I'm sure I will... but I need to give the checking acct a rest for a little while... Wife has been super, but the dog house was never very comfortable...

Hey R -

The Macaroni and Cheese diet for a year will help cover the brakes... ;)

LMAO... It's not that bad... I'm just more concerned with getting to and from the fest...

Got a ton of stuff to do before then... a long ton...

really? I put an addition on mine last year. Very cosy now.

Mr. Mariner with the LONG ton... ;)

High speed Internet in the dog house: check

Kegerator in the doghouse: check

Hmmm I cant think of anything else I could possible need in the doghouse. I'm ok with it!

I wonder..... how come a house never has an area to park a car in the living room?

It makes sense if you think about it.


..... it does to me anyways :D

...measuring back wall.... No problem, little cut here, touch up paint there, I can fit my car right next to the couch, and the kids mini trampoline.

That's what I'm talking about! I've been eyeballing my dining room picture window closely.... looks like a nice place for a garage door,

Make sure you splurge for the insulated door...

Yes he does.

:laugh:

OH dude. My house has an open floor plan.... we never eat at the dining room table anyway...


:D

:confused0068:

My dog house list starts and stops here.

Hey Chris already said he liked my sunglasses the best :paddle:;)

I am sure he should, err does, is :yikes: but I was only speaking about MY dog house that only fits two :D

i'm starting to think i don't even need a doghouse - the couch in the garage will probably do just fine. that way, fixing-up-the-doghouse money can go to the car too! :thumbsup:

:word: call it decorating or accessorizing...

I wonder what Tom Henry is doing with his old showroom doors :popcorn:

I heard he was auctioning the tiles off to the highest bidder...

THRT... Tom Henry Racing Tiles... for the wall or floor... Own a piece of Nostalgic Racing History...
