Lol, you speak of them like a needy girlfriend that you can just dump and move on. For those of us that drive defectable cars, its the risk we take. You know even stock cars can be defected? Worn and cracked seals, bald tyres, structural damage, damaged suspension etc.

thus is my point, you can defect a brand new car :wave:

motorsport communities should be banding together to say sumthing to the powers that be, im all for a police presence at motorsport events cause odds are people are driving out of there pissed. but to have a defect station instead of a RBT bulllllllsh!t

can this thread not turn into another debate about mallala and cops, worried about defects, find another way of getting there. We took flicks old 32 to almost every drift event while she owned it, never had a problem. Its pot luck as to who gets picked on, some get lucky, some dont.

may as well bang your head against the wall Luke. This thread has gone from a Malalla event to a whorehouse

Will be there showing some love to the Bonez.......

Once again use your brain peoples, if you WANT/HAVE to drive your import out there, the cops aren't gonna be there all night after it finishes, so leave later after they pack up, or get there early and miss any defect station if there is gonna be one!!

Not trying to invent the wheel here.......

What if the cops are reading this thread?! :(

    • I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.
    • Plus, you'll get great experience in bedding in pads!
    • I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.
    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
