    BSH = Great

    Hawk HPS for the REAR brakes on the track?

    Question for you guys... Would Hawk HPS pads hold up on the rear brakes for a track day or two if I use a track pad on the front? The reason I'm asking is that I'm going to install HPS's all around in the Spring, but I want to swap out the front brakes for a track-oriented setup (pads &...

    FS: Drivers-Side Euro Projector Fog Light. Used. CHEAP!

    Here is a used OEM Euro Projector Fog Light. It was slightly damaged in a collision with a suicidal cat a few months ago. I bought a new one for my car, but I repaired the broken tabs with 2-part epoxy. Glass is pitted from used (I am the 2nd owner), but no cracks at all. Use it for...

    WTB: ONE (1) Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R, 225-40-18

    A piece of metal caught me on the Brucker Expressway in the Bronx this morning and put a gash in one of my tires and killed it. Anyone around here have a SINGLE Potenza RE-01R in 225-40-18? Used is fine, so long as it hasn't been plugged.

    HID Fog Lights; 3000K or 4300K?

    So, I'm thinking of upgrading my oem euro projector fogs from the Hoen Endurance halogen bulbs to HID's. As much as I like the Hoen's, I would like more light on the road. Which brings me to this... Should I but a 3000K kit to retain the yellow "bad weather" look, or should I go with a more...

    So, my Dad and I were driving back from our shop on Saturday. We worked on our widebody 911 project (link in sig) for half a day. Well, we were doing about 60 in the left lane of the Belt Parkway (NY locals know it), and everything was cool, until... Wham! Crack! Thump! Thump! me- WTF WAS...

    Billysburg, BK

    My friend Arthur and I went out last Saturday to the neighborhood of Williamsburg and took some pics. Not bad for a car that is 99% stock :laugh: The car is an '08 with a few cosmetic mods, and even fewer mechanical mods. Check our Arthur's other work at http://arthurl.zenfolio.com/

    NASA @ Pocono N, 9/5/09...anyone going?

    I'm registered for a HPDE with NASA on September 5 over at Pocono. Any other MkV-ers going? I know Pocono isn't the best track, but it looks like the only event I'll be able to get to before the end of the season. So...anyone going?
