I know, right?
Ok, how about engine RPM? At what RPM were you running? On second thought, 70's pretty fast for me. I only admire Fredric Aasbo. I can't drive like him.

Yeah, I think it's because you're used to a turbo. Maybe a blower for me someday. Good luck with your brakes, bro. Welcome!

Tip from my old 83 Corolla: parking brake adjustment: While rolling SLOWLY in reverse, stop car only using hand brake. Pull quick and hard. Repeat about 10 times, rolling and stopping. Profit.
Just tried it on my FR-S in the parking lot and the boot is no longer stretched tight. (Seems the automatic star adjusters work better in reverse). |

Glad to hear it worked for you! I've been driving Toyotas since the 80's and this trick has worked on all of them. Since the FR-S is partially a subie, didn't know if it would work the same way. I think I read it in a Chilton's manual once way back in the day.
