BlueBarchetta

Posted some lame pics of my car early in the thread, with my Mid Ohio stickers on.

Rolled the car out onto the driveway to try and get some better pics. I have the 17x8, 17x9 +45s


Here is a side view. Lowered on PSS9s




Hopefully this gives an idea of "flushness" Dunlop Star Specs 225/255






Also took the opportunity to install the Accord Caliper conversion with Racing Brake 2 piece rotors and Racing Brake Pads

^^^ whats the advantages of the accord calipers? sbc looks hot on suzuka btw!

bigger pad surface area= more braking power

BlueBarchetta

Bigger pad area by about 20-30%. The bolt on 2 piece rotor that dissapates heat better than stock, is nice also

Drawback is slightly more pedal travel till brake takes hold. This does, however, level the brake pedal to the gas pedal for better heel/toe downshifting

i have a Suzuka and wanted the SBC finish, a great combo! try blue lugs.
i went with white instead btw, cant afford SBC.

i need some opinions from other rpf1 owners please!

i love the look of polished on NFR, so i originally planned on going to with SBC, the wheel setup i want to run is F: 17x9 +45 R: 17x9.5 +38, i pmed lsd motorsports and they said they can in fact have the rears in sbc ordered but it will take a few weeks, altogether the sbc setup will run me close to 1500 for all 4, but i can get the same setup in silver for 985 shipped, so should i spend the extra money for the SBC or just buy the silver ones then get them polished or chromed somewhere? help!!!!

im not really sure how much getting wheels polished or chromed would cost, im thinking maybe around 400?

It's up to you. If the SBC they can get for you is factory finish, I'd almost just pay the extra for that, since you know it'll be factory finish. You take a chance when doing it on your own.

Just my 2 cents.

Yanper that looks clean man. Looks like you might just get a little rubbing on the rear though?

thats what im thinking...im waiting for lsd to give me a yes 100% then ill probably just go that route, i guess they are off on weekends i hate waiting

Dreaming S2k-
yea it rubs in the back slightly when i hit a bump on the road or make a tight turn, the tires are 45series so thats why, i had my fenders professionally rolled and all and i dont really want to get ride of my tires yet because they are fairly new, but once they get worn i will go to some 40 series
