  1. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    He's running CSF's protoype oil cooler/trans cooler setup. It looks intriguing, but hopefully the bumper vents aren't the final iteration.
  2. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    This test is pretty silly, you can't pick a heavy, camber-challenged car without adjustment, and then compare a bunch of tires and consider that a baseline for all chassis. The M2 is a pig, with no camber. Of course, the A052 is going to struggle. Honestly, in my book, TR lost some credibility...
  3. Racing the FL5 Type R with all OEM spec parts on Laguna Seca

    This thread is weird.... All of this is written out elsewhere, and you are WAY over thinking just about everything...
  4. Washington [SOLD] Garage Unique Lip - Gloss Black

    SOLD Selling a brand new GU Lip. Never mounted. I’ve decided to go in a different direction, so need to move this. Located in Seattle, WA. Pickup/Meetip preferred - but willing to ship at buyer’s expense. I do get great rates through work, but I tossed the box when it first arrived, so...
  5. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    Pretty high temps. Keep an eye on them. Time to level up to S+ and S Ranks!
  6. Brake Pad Manufacturer/Model Compilation Thread

    You get what you pay for :). Superior modulation, heat management, and life. I don't pay an arm and a leg for pads across multiple chassis because they don't deliver ;)
  7. Brake Pad Manufacturer/Model Compilation Thread

    Missing all Counterspace Garage CSG Spec Compounds: https://www.counterspacegarage.com/csg-spec/csg-spec-brake-pads
  8. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    Road Atlanta stands as one of the most thrilling places I’ve driven in the country. High Risk - High Reward.
  9. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    Hate that people think this is a badge of honor. Typically means you’re in ABS too much, or using a pad with less than ideal thermal capacity and it’s transferring it into your caliper. Goal is to strive for fast laps with those letters staying white.
  10. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    I’m going to make the assumption your pedal dance wasn’t successful. There’s no way your rear pads should be that smoked after 2 days at PittRace with TCS and VSA disabled. My rear stock pads looked barely touched after a full day at Ridge, which has similar braking demands. Swapping rear...
  11. Florida FS: BNIB FL5 Hel Oil Cooler

    Don’t think it’s appropriate to even suggest F&F from an unknown seller. You eat that 3% as a part of doing business.
  12. DE5 guy seeking suspension help!

    Unlikely you’ll be able to leave them in regardless of setting, because they would require someone verify your alignment specs, plus it gives you some adjustment to perfect that alignment with some flexibility you otherwise wouldn’t have. I don’t really agree with that, but these are the rules...
  13. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    In-car. Flew in from CA.
  14. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    It's a good option -- I've got 7 hard days on mine, and they are still looking great. I've run them backwards twice now just to even out wear a bit. I will be flipping on the wheels soon to get some additional life. The little wear indicators on the sidewall are quite helpful. I've been running...
  15. Lets talk brake pads

    I find expensive brake pads are often worth the investment between life, modulation, and thermal capcity. If you like the DS1.11, try it. Worst thing that happens is you don't love it and you try something else next time. Remember that Paragon Pads are just rebranded Winmax - they are nothing...
  16. How Much Track Experience Do You Have?

    Exactly! What is a shame is when people are determined to have a crazy modified car to start...and then never start, or quit quickly, because they think their highly modified car should be "faster". 1.5 is really where it's at. Good Pads, Rotors, Tires -- worry about consumable and seat time...
  17. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    you can toe out the rear for some spicy oversteer, but the way the car is setup isn't ready needed.
  18. *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*

    I'd get about as much front camber as your can without jeopardizing street driving. -3.5* has been good on my crap roads. The car needs front camber for turn in and tire wear.
  19. KW suspension vs Ohlis vs Fortune Auto 510

    I disagree -- you will spend nearly an equivalent number with JRZ, MCS, or Nitron. All of which will ultimately ride better and are more compliant on the street and the track than a budget coilover. Having run the gamut of Fortune to JRZ and Penske...I can tell you I'd be pretty hard pressed to...
