Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Honestly my personal favorite update to this thread:

No more car payment on the evo! Thank you tax return. Now I won't feel like a dbag for having a car payment and modding at the same time...feels real good.

As there is no snow i have thought lots about the car lately.

I am in the process of putting an order through MAP right now. As of right now I am ordering a new OEM serp belt and Shawn and myself are going to look into that when it gets warm out. However, Shane commented on my brakes being really weak last time he had the car and I agreed after I drove it, I think its time for at least pads. 30k miles on stock evo pads seems pretty solid.

I REALLY want girodisc 2piece rotors for some rotational weight savings but that will have to wait. My plan is this:

Ferodo DS2500's
ATE Super Blue
AMS SS lines or technafit to save a few bucks

I think Scheides has this setup essentially, any thoughts? Mostly street driven car really.

The only other question is do you guys think my rotors should be alright or is that a maybe? Turn them maybe? Or am I stuck buying new ones?

Thanks for feedback!
