New brakes are awesome. I just did a rotors/pads/lines install. There is a huge difference in feel, stopping distance and noise over before.

I was using that same stuff b4 I left, good stuff. I had the same problem with my license plate being rubbed out too :P

i get it from work......its loud but the exhaust noise will cover most of it up.... its pretty grippy tires and last pretty long. i like them overall and i would recommend them to anyone if you dont mind road noise from the tires.

Yeah the Turtlewax Ice is pretty good. I use it on both our cars and it held up to a winter no problem. Not sure if its better than Rejex though.

Tires actually from Costco when they carried Bridgestones. The RE750 is a great all-around tire. Quiet, decent street grip in both rain and dry. With a treadwear of 340, a long-lasting tire to boot. I used to run Yokohama ES100s, but they were prone to cupping and did not last.

The brakes are great. Those are Powerslots, with Hawk street performance pads, Goodridge lines and super blue fluid. Very firm pedal, seem to work very well on the street with minimal dust. Can't wait 'till July to try them @ autocross. I am currently running Prodrive springs, so the drop is very minimal, but the ride is actually better than the stock springs. The ride is not as bouncy, more controlled.
