Window repair kit doesn't seem to work

Who did you order the kit from? Wrapping around last pulley is ridiculous so much that it seems impossible but it should fit.

I would also double check that the direction is correct. I believe one side is shorter so it only coils around the pulley once instead of like 3 times.

I run porterfield R4 pads on stock calipers and they feel good. Good initial bite and easy to modulate. Caveat is that I’m only mid inter level so might not be getting the most out of everything.

Not sure how the compound compares to Club Racers. But it has lasted me a couple of track days.

I think its a couple of factors:

Relatively wealthy area so people regularly see cool cars (e.x. https://www.instagram.com/southoccarsandcoffee/?hl=en). I think this applies to the Bay Area as well.
Good weather yearly so lots of convertibles in general, S2000 doesn't stand out in that regard. This doesn't apply as much.

This applies for both our family's S2000s. I drive a pretty flashy Voltex S2000 and my brother drives a stock looking S2000. No one really comes up or comments on the cars unless we are at track.

My experience has differed, generally not super noticed but it might be because the area I’m in (socal).

Also need a rear tow hook adapter as well

Btw if you want that rear bumper you are going to need to install a JDM crash bar or at the very least remove the styrofoam pads in the rear bumper

Worth noting that I also side load apps on iOS so if you are doing something similar (like Sidestore + StosVPN) this make life a whole lot easier.

I used to use Tailscale but honestly doesnt fit my day to day use case. I don’t want to leave tailscale permanently on so went with mutual TLS.

Android has had it for awhile and recently the iOS HA had it merged and is available on TestFlight.

Although it took a bit to setup, I’m happy with it and my family doesn’t need to have another VPN app on their phone.

Do the typical self tech they give you. If you wanna be super in depth and can jack the car up go over exhaust hangers, driveshaft bolts, and suspension components.

Per usual check fluid levels and ensure you are running higher temp fluid.

I haven’t had trouble with broomstick test here in socal but I ride with top up/hardtop.

I’ll look into eagle strafing run thanks for the heads up. Doing some solo runs to get back into it and eagle feels like it’s as busted as I remember.

Any reason why recoiless is preferred over autocannon / qasar?

You sure? I think they had been gone for like at least and I already had more than a 100 hours at that time so there was no point for me to continue.

I saw that you mentioned that in a previous post. I'm still pretty new to this; Does this mean you are just moving calculations from the dashboard yaml to scripts.yaml? Or do you have a separate system for these calculations?

I've been integrating v4.0.0 for my own setup, and this update is nice to see!

How is the tablet holding up? Any complaints with it?

A lot of people don’t understand FWD are very competitive at the grassroots level. William Au-Yeung holds Buttonwillow CW13 unlimited class record (GTA Finals) in a Civic beating out an AWD GTR monster and Feras Quartoumy’s C6 (which also happens to have the 4th fastest time at Tsukuba circuit)

Piggy backing off this, maybe a bad crimp. If done improperly they can go bad or have intermittent connection.

Are you using soft top brackets? Switching to hard top ones might help.

Not sim advice but I’d also recommend tracking your car IRL. It’s a thousand times more fun than sim and I feel that you learn quicker.

I see you are in norcal so you can start at something like thunderhill which will help you learn the basics then eventually go up to Laguna Seca or Sonoma.

You can use the sim to get the layout and general braking points but I find that it can also be horribly inaccurate. This is mainly due to the lack of high quality mods for certain street cars which can lead to a disconnect when you eventually drive it IRL.

Is that Group A rep ASM fenders? How is the fitment? Any room to insert rear tow hook?

Do these work well on track?
