Yessir, I've been on one of the original releases of them since they were first introduced.

I still had the stock cali's on, but couldn;'t get pressure from the master. I've got a different master :suspect: but I didn't have lines for it, those showed up yesterday afternoon, only a week late.

So I've got A master, and a few lines, still missing some lines, 4 rotors, 2 sets of pads, 3 calipers, and 2 sets of pads :banghead:

I thought about stealing the brakes from the 'vert, but they've been sitting stagnant for almost 4 years now, not sure I'd trust those on the dragon when my well lovefd brakes faded to nothing on the dragon.

All in all it's a horrible nightmare from which there is no escape...:willy_nilly:



Where are you flying into?

Ship me your brakes damnit! No wait, those won't work.... EJ, send me yours
I fly into the Nashville then drive out. I was going to a lake after the event, but that got cancelled. So I haven't decided when I will fly back.

Pretty quick, with the exception of what was backordered
They haven't sent me a shipping notification yet, so I get the impression they haven't shipped what I asked for yet. This puts me in the same boat as you (I can't readily put the harness together without the heatshrink on there).

TitaniumTT 04-22-2011 12:36 PM
I didn't think you had a kid. You said after the job you'll build something for 500. I'm saying I've heard that before. After you get the job, other things will get in the way, family, house, kid, mistress, second kid, etc etc etc...... much like 2010 was supposed to bne the year of the FC, then FC meant first child..... get it?

No... but that's okay. I probably won't understand for awhile. I just laugh at the thought of trying to get to 500 HP without a source of income or a place to call my own. :Lol:

Yeah I know, blows. Still trying but it's looking pretty damn doubtful. MOST of the brakes came in but I'm still missing some pretty key parts. And to make matters worse, I can't get even steal the parts that I need from the 'vert as they are in WORSE shape than the ones I got. Just to tease all of you though, I'm going to take some pics of the new brake setup and make you all green with envy, then I'm going to never show any of you :rofl::smilielol5:

If you need something to blame; blame prowire. I still haven't received my heat shrink I ordered. In fact I have received stuff that I ordered after it. They're taking their sweet time.:o10:

Let me think... I wrecked my first 7 in December of '06, swapped to a roller during spring break of '07 to the summer, rebuild and turbo swap in winter '08, Drove it around in '09-'10, and now upgrading the ECU in '11. I seriously only need the heat shrink to get this car ready to tune... well not really, but basically.

TitaniumTT 04-23-2011 01:51 PM
Huh, so I guess you were running it around for the last year or so turbo'ed on the stocker TII ecu???


BTW - rear brakes are kinda sorta done... got some fab work to do to make the Lokar e-brake cable work, and of course I'm waiting on some crush washers that are supposed to be here Tuesday to make connections...... HOLLY CRAP are they fucking HUGE!!! I couldn't fit a **** hair between the caliper and the wheel if I wanted too :D

No... I was using an NA S4 RTek 2.1... which just wasn't cutting it at all. So I upgraded to a full stand alone.
