Long awaited visit to Fensport to get my BRZeeeeee's ride and alignment sorted. I also had the Superpro rear suspension arms and toe links installed.

BTW, Fensport's Track prepped Yaris in the background..

Put new brake pads on, I think I got the use out of the last ones! Also put new brake fluid in and then looked at the clutch and realized it had been neglected so change it out also. Nothing looks better than fresh brake fluid.

You took the oil pan off to change your brake pads? That's a little extreme.

Isn’t that how everyone does it?

That is the throw away pan from my 2GR-FE. That engine is getting a baffled pan before going back into the Evora.

Or we could go back to worst brake design ever! Had to pull the engine pan off to change them.
