wayne, go an see troy at tyrepower. he'll price match. and you dont have to pay shipping + fitting and balance on top.

steve, again, call up a shop like tyrepower and ask them for an honest no bs answer. 15-20,000 maybe.

also just got my qfm pads, paid for them over the phone yesterday at 2 pm, postie came by 5 minutes ago with them.

Will call tyrepower, I'm going to need a couple fronts pretty soon.

Which pads did you get Dave, HPX or A1RM?

The KU31's I bought are on the back. My fronts have the insides chewed out now because of incorrect toe! I'm thinking of going for the HPX pads, not going to be tracking my car :)

tasty.

a1rms are still good cold, but they still work when they get hot. ive already overheated my 450 degree acres once.

Any tyrepower in particular lol?

i think theres one in salisbury. try them.

      Rb25det Belts Change

      Once the belt slips it can very easily cause a cascade that encourages more belt slip. Check the pulleys carefully and see if the grooves have cupped. If it has it's time to replace the pulleys. If the rubber has glazed you also need to replace it. Shouldn't be shiny. From the factory there's a lot of exposed fibers(?) on a v-belt that will go away as it's broken in but some should still remain visible without sticking out significantly like a new belt. I went through this on my dad's Camry recently. It would keep slipping even after setting the tension higher, only solution was a new belt.

      Belt polished and/or pulley(s) glazed. Rub pulleys with sandpaper, replace belt.

      Quick Lifts? Anybody got one?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      I've also got a quick jack. I would never get under my car again without using it.  While it might be quicker to use a jack and stands, it is such a quality of life improvement that I wouldn't have it any other way now.  How much slower the quick jack is to setup will be based on your circumstances. Can you leave the jack rails on each side of the garage? Can you leave the hydraulic lines attached? etc.  If you can drive the car into the garage and simply push the jacking rail thingos under the car into place, it is super quick to setup and use. But if you have to pull the pump unit out of storage, attach the hydraulic lines, wheel out the lifting rail thingos.... yeah takes a bit of time. Having said that, I would still prefer that to using a jack and stands lol.
