"Grant's S2000 build thread, all Canard Chat all the time."

Anywho, they're here!



AX6 for Autox/street:


And some very metallic looking XP10/XP8 for TimeAttack:




Now to underhand those new rotors in there, and bed in the autox pads.

Finally found time to install/bed my new brakes...

Starspecs felt much better after the autox, I think they're scrubbed in properly now.

Tire usage tracking:
  • one TimeAttack
  • 12 autox runs
  • 200km of driving

Brakes are swapped, bled, bedded in, and appear to have caught on fire!





Hopefully I've now got "brakes that won't break".

I put the camera on intervalometer & even took a timelapse of me rocking out in the garage.
