The pins are causing my pad to hang and contact the rotor and drag. From what Mann has told me, this is not the first time as it seems Centric is splitting apart calipers and mismatching the halves. One of their customers had to get the holes filed so that the pins could actually align and go in correctly. At this point, im pretty worried about using them at the track, so I'm going 4-piston AP Racing fronts.

Problem is they weren't rebuilt by Brembo...or someone who knows what they are doing apparently.

Nuked it in urine neutralizer. I found my door had been left ajar overnight and it smelled like a cat took it for a ride :|

Shampooing appears to be in my future...

*Sure it's animal **** and not some scum bag or vagrant trying to break-in and could only get the door partially open and decided to **** on it instead?

Moved another step closer to looking more stock. Eibach Springs are coming off soon and STI Springs will take their place. N1 is also coming off as I sourced a stock catback.

Now just need better tires, Flapatax mudflaps and a OEM rack!
