Yes, that was an easy solution.
I had my wheels off today to inspect the work they did with the brake lines. All looks good. I also checked the brake pads.
With around 65 laps on Zolder and Nurburgring GP circuit I am down 1.8 mm from 17 to 15.2 in the front on the RC5+ - @
brzest , you asked about that earlier.
I also checked the rear and they are down to 12.2 mm. I think new stock ones are 16 mm? So I probably have to change them soon.
Since I don't have to take the wheels off every other day as in the last months, I mounted them back on with my black Muteki SR35 lug nuts. Those lug nuts has symbolic meaning as it's quite a milestone - I didn't want to put them on until I was done! So this finishes my first list of mods, and the car is now the way I want it.
From here on it's driving and maintenance. And clearing out what issues may arise (brakes as an example, if I have to resort to AP Sprint too). Also I want to change the oil cooler and find a better solution to the sandwich plate. But it's all small stuff. Down the line, I would like the HKS Supercharger (that's why I won't waste money on engine or exhaust), but that's phase 2 for me.
What I need right now are new tires!! AD08R are up next!
This is what she looks like now.
