I'm having more fun trying to find info about tuning my idle.

I'm not having fun at all actually.

I keep forgetting to post this in your thread. But if it idles fine ignore the o2 sensor. There's definitely a possibility that your sensor is still warming up. Tune by feel.

ive been looking for the last hour or so for other 4x100 rotors, and i dont think we are going to find anything larger than 11". think about it, anything much larger is going to be on a 5 bolt hub.

<p>Yeah. just a good price. It seems like a budget corrado setup does exist. But idk if a budget willwood setup does. I guess we could always build a corrado setup, and then if we find out we need 11.75 we already have the calipers.</p>

</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>exactly my thought. worst case scenario, if we start cracking rotors or whatever, we are out those rotors and a pair of home made brackets. then we could just order a good-win or v8r kit less front calipers. think of it as a form of financing, or amortizing a BBK lol</p>

<p>I just hate that the red calipers are twice as much. And I hate it even more because I know I'm going to buy them...</p><p>Forgot to post up some fuel system additions. And new throttle body for the 1.8.</p><p><br /><br /><br /></p>

How easy are they to disassemble? I have a powder coating setup, could make them even better than red.

I like the current proposed plan, I can't break rotors.

I can't do jack till I'm done scrubbing though, goddamn this sucks!

<p>Use this:&nbsphttp://;http://revlimiter.net/blog/2...s-like-a-boss/</p><p>I assume they are simple to disassemble. They are meant to be rebuildable I would assume. Red matches my car, and my girlfriend likes it. They stay red.</p>

<p>I asked Andrew about it when his new brake kit came out. Its because black are annodized and red are powdercoated.</p>
