today i found out that i am not geting my seats be cause the supplyer has not made a shipment in 3 months!!! mad.gif so i got my money back, did some research and bought these instead... (Matrix Type-X Modena Alcantara Racing Seats) from my research i am hearing that thay are good seats and have a long life with little or no issues, just not a top brand co. like sparco or recaro. i like them because thay are alcantara and have a fair price tage most seats that are made with alcantara COST $$$$!!! has any one had any personal experance with them??? if so please post...

if you are asking your self "why???" its because i am going with a red alcantara (suede) interior, ie. doors, front & rear seats, steering wheel ect ect...

ooohhh!!! i know what you are sayin !!! your talkin about how most D1 drift cars run the wheels a little to wide and tires a little to narrow so the wheel rides the fender lip!!! it almost looks as tho its rubin but its not!!! lots of vip cars are also goin for the same look... well, i dont think its goin to look quite llike that but it will be verrrry close... my boyfriend saids "i have a camber kit on the car and when its "dialed-in" the wheels will be with in 2mm of the fenders..."

i was gonna ask you if you were gonna run any negative chamber or what not, but im deff excited to see how the car will turn out. And for that "narrow" look i stretched 235 on the rear of my 240, when in fact they should be 255....although i need to are adjust my whole suspension now and get an alignment so nothing is absolutely rubbing....once your car is done, post pics of it on HELLAFLUSh...im serious when i saythis might be the first flush 6gc

hey your rotors are on backwards, the slot should be / not \

Actually, if the rotor has internal curved vanes, the slots need to be cut accross the vane.
Otherwise, it will crack through the unsupported slot.
The rotor must be mounted according to the internal vanes in order to get rid of heat as fast as possible.
Hence, if the rotors she is using has internal curved vanes and they are slotted properly, that is already the correct way.
Slots: [front (\) rear]
Internal Vanes: [front (/) rear]

you are right!!! the curved vanes are there to move hot air from the center of the hub/rotors outward...
