Brakes should arrive tomorrow, should be installed on Thursday. Calipers get painted on Saturday. Still have yet to hear from Arraut for coilovers.

Stay tuned!
 
Re: Carcrobatic's White '00 GT - Pic heavy thread

I emailed that guy like 2 months ago asking pretty specific stuff because on his website somewhere they say something about complete custom builds and he never got back with me. I figured it was because my questions were crazy but Idk
 
Re: Carcrobatic's White '00 GT - Pic heavy thread

Lol, I think I'll just call him tomorrow and if it doesn't work out I'll probably just buy from Intense.

Richard from Arraut answered my call yesterday, coilovers are in the works and I've been up since 2am painting calipers!


 


Re: Carcrobatic's White '00 GT - Pic heavy thread

What steps did you do for the painting?
Other than masking all necessary parts of the caliper/car, the fronts were painted right out of the box they arrived in. The rear was removed and hung from a small hole in the wheel well using one of the bracket bolts. The caliper was then sprayed with degreasing cleaner and rubbed with a terry cloth towel. All calipers were sprayed with 3 light coats getting a bit more heavy each time. I'm very happy with the results so far, I'm eager to install the fronts tomorrow.

Everything is officially on the car, test drive didn't go so well. Car is at Firestone for a new brake master cylinder.

Lets hope they don't overcharge you, Firestone will sometimes like to dig deep into your wallet

Yeah, I usually have good luck with the guys by my house though. They've been getting better over the years.
