Brake job today. Hawk Ht-10 pads front and rear with centric high carbon cryo treated rooters and centric premiums in the rear. My rotors used to be DBA 4000 slotted and the pad used to be a ht-10 lol.

You'll still hear me. It's the pads that make the noise.

Installed this, car desperately needed more side bolster during trackday. I have a passenger setup as well, but Subaru decided to change the passenger detection system and now it's a thin membrane glued to the seat foam :/ Atleast the g/f still has her heated seat

Attention PSA:

My headgasket is fine. Added a couple cups of coolant back in the top reservior and topped off the oil. No coolant in oil nor oil in coolant. No white smoke. Just the coolant all over the place the night after romping hard on 280.

Took it to my mechanic and he performed a free hydrocarbon test and it came back negative. He advised me to get two new radiator caps as it likely overheated while i was driving like a mainiac and the pressure caps did not open in turn forcing the coolant out of the overflow.

$3000 crisis averted and i get to stay within this lovely community.
