Xenonk Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 ST40 Front calipers and ST22 rear calipers. I am planning on running the Stoptech set-up in June... hmmm, I'll see if I can get those for you.. normally I can get practically any carbotech brake pad for the stock calipers. I'll have to talk to Brakeswap about your particular sizes and hope to bring a set for you (at least the fronts). Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leftride Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 well, unfortunately I am not going to be able to make it, I am helping a good friend move to CA. If anyone is interested I can see about transferring my registration, I hope it's not a big deal since we haven't filled out our forms yet. I don' care about the $35, I just don't want my space to get wasted. if anyone is interested let me know. *vb gallery* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phamilton Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 I have 3 Fuzion ZRI 225/40/R18 that would be perfect to burn up on the track. I would sell them cheap if anyone is interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottybuckeye Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Xenonk, should a noobie like me get new brake pads? If so, please give me recommendations and links if you have em. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenonk Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 ^ I may bring a set of used brake pads with me on the plane, we'll see. I dont know if the airport allows me to bring stuff like that as a carry-on, we'll see.. It's best to get at least a set of the front brake pads like Carbotech XP10s or XP12s for a track day. Call up Eric at http://www.brakeswap.com and he'll send you a set in time for the event. Stock pads wont hold up to the braking that you put them through, especially if we have a warm weekend.

Xenonk Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 So, we need to mkae plans for where Keefe can stay/who can get him from the Airport. Can any of the Denver folks volunteer? I may have to call up my friends and see if they would like to spend a night near boulder and such (they won't be driving at the track, but they may come out to watch). I'll be landing at the Airport at 5pm. I may have to book a room soon around the area. If anyone coming far needs a place to crash the hotel floor or whatever, let me know so I can make arrangements. Does anyone have the exact address of the track location and as well as any hotels that's worth staying? Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enthusiast Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Dude you are more than welcome to stay at my house. I live in Highlands Ranch and will be driving up to Boulder anyway.

Cool, my info is here: Friday June 1st Flight #1341 (Southwest) Depart BALTIMORE-WASHNTN (BWI) at 2:40 PM Arrive in DENVER INTL (DEN) at 4:35 PM Sunday June 3rd Flight #2947 (Southwest) Depart DENVER INTL (DEN) at 9:00 AM Arrive in BALTIMORE-WASHNTN (BWI) at 2:25 PM I'll let you know if I need the ride or not, I'll have to see if my other friends in Colorado will be able to hang out with the rest of us (she drives an STi while her friend has an 07? Spec B GT). They won't be tracking their cars, but they may come out to hang out a bit and probably head out for a night out since I've never been to Colorado and we'll party it up Saturday night or something.. all I have to do is that I make it to the Airport by 7AM sunday morning, haha. I should be able to land just in time to drive to another autox by 3pm to run in the final heat. We'll see. Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottybuckeye Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Holy shit, I didn't realize pads were pushing $200! That would be for a pair, correct Keefe? Are they easy to install? Would you recommend them for daily driving? I don't race much nor plan on doing it too too much in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praedet Posted May 23, 2007 Author Share Posted May 23, 2007 The pads he is recommending are track only pads. If I were you, I might just get a set of replacement pads because you WILL burn up your stock pads. Very easy to install. We can do it at the track for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get just the front set of some Carbotech XP8s which are great for summer driving. You can leave the rear stock to keep it cost effective. They should be just be good enough for very spirited driving and you just have to be easy on the first 1 or 2 stops when the brakes are cold (cold as in 'air temperature' or 'touchable'). It's easy to swap out brake pads in my opinion. You just need one set for the front for this track day.. it's just enough to prevent any brake fade. You can certainly drive on stock pads, but it wont be as fun since the stock pads will start losing its bite after 3 or 4 laps. Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enthusiast Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I'll PM you sometime on Monday or Tuesday of next week.. is that cool with you? Sounds good. Those XP8's you recommend for the front do they squeal and do they dust a lot? I am gonna just order the XP8's and some fluid, that should be good for my Summer drives.

scottybuckeye Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Just to make sure, this is what I need correct?... http://www.subarupartsforyou.com/cp_partdetail.php?partid=3226 It's a brake pad set. Does that include both front wheel brakes or not? Sounds like one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enthusiast Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Are you planning on using the above for the track day? I don't think they would work very well after a couple of high speed stops. I am planning on buying a front set of XP8 or maybe XP10 from here and some new fluid. He has a discount going but I am not sure if it still works but will try. Here is where I found the XP8 for $145 My mod list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
