I want to (eventually) get the Stage 4 kit, and I noticed the yellow color is available for the rears but not for the fronts... is that an error from the web? or is there a reason for that?

Not sure if this has been brought up here yet, but what kind of brake fluids are you guys running?

I'm running Motul RBF600 this year. It's great on track day with awesome fade and compressiblity resistance but once it cools off, it get's noticeably compressible so partial bleeds are required after every event or two to maintain a firm pedal. Considering how expensive it is, I'm not a fan of how often you need to flush it. It cost me $100 to run it for 4 track days last year. I'm only running it again this year because I still have a few sealed bottles left over from last year. I'll look at running something else next year.

Should I be lubricating anything when installing these? Its not in the instructions but I know its normally a thing.
Also, the shims for the front pads are a bit smaller than the pads... Is that normal? |

Finally got my kit installed!
Had a few minor hickups (the mix of Metric and Standard sized bolts/bleeders/etc. is a bit annoying) but they are on and working just fine. Pics: P.S. sorry about the ride height, my front suspension is currently out for repair/re-valve and will be back soon. |
