    Wheel Alignment - Review and tips

    I'm confused when you say you won't use the above method but use the owners manual. As you mentioned in post #10, you have to adjust both the steering knuckle and the top strut mount to get max chamber. So I'm not sure how you're just adjusting the strut to get track camber? Personally, I ran...

    Brake Pad Stick / Seize

    I installed these last night and bed them in. I'll know tomorrow morning if they stick or not since it's raining/snowing here all day.

    Racing brake fluid

    I haven't changed mine yet but I'll assume it's the same as a lot of cars that share the clutch. You want to go in with 1.5L to 2L. That's the same amount on hand you'd want with something like a Camaro or Cayman.

    CT5-V Maverick Noir Frost Matte Black

    GM is missing out. They should be offering individual paints for their performance cars like BMW does. They offer it on a pile of their models now. GM should at the very least be offering it on their Corvettes.

    Tapout CT4-V Blackwing Carbon Fiber Intake Test Results

    I think you're looking at the torque line. The bottom line showing HP is showing matched output from 2.9-3.0k RPM and only 20HP down at 2.6k RPM. I wouldn't look at 2.4k to 2.5K RPM as that's the start point for the run. Obviously it doesn't do 0HP at 2.4k RPM like the graph is showing...

    Tapout CT4-V Blackwing Carbon Fiber Intake Test Results

    I think you're looking at the wrong line. The blue line is the one you should be looking at, reference post #6. If you're seeing 50whp down compared to stock then you're looking at the green line.

    Racing brake fluid

    If you're group 3 or 4 I don't think you need to change fluid. That said, I personally run Endless RF650.

    Brake Pad Stick / Seize

    I'll have better photos in the summer when I take it down 5mi of muddy dirt roads to get to my mountain bike trail head.

    Brake Pad Stick / Seize

    If you're talking about the picture of my rotor, that's my front rotor.

    Brake Pad Stick / Seize

    I've tried that a couple of times during the summer and I wasn't successful. I would usually do 10 to 15 aggressive 65mph to 20mph stops with no ABS activation. Then I'd drive it a few miles without braking to help it cool down. A track day has fixed it every time though. I'll have to do it...

    Brake Pad Stick / Seize

    Well, I did order them but I've had other projects over the holidays and just have felt like doing it. So I don't have any updates. Plus, my rotors now look like this from all sticking they've been doing. Surprisingly I don't have any vibration yet when the brakes are applied but that'll...

    Does your Blackwing get a Christmas present?

    I was going to do down pipes and tuner but now I'm really leaning towards a new over/under. Weathertech makes these if you have a rubber trunk mat: CargoTech Containment System Blocks For Your Trunk | WeatherTech You can also use the folding plastic crates.

    2nd gear 6MT

    I haven't had any issues with 1-6 yet. I have had issues trying to get the car into R a few times during the summer but it's been awhile for that.

    Auction Site listings

    I watch GTS 4.0 on BAT because that's what I'd ideally move into in about 2 years. Low mileage examples in the last few months are only hitting 90-95% of MSRP. Dealers still have low allocations and ADM but the used market is falling. It actually gives me hope that they'll be down to around...

    CT5-V Blackwing Performance Mods and Numbers

    If you're referring to warranty work then if GM directly gets involved for some reason then you'll still have a fight. AFAIK, all of these modern platforms in the last few years can use various onboard modules to detect if the vehicle accelerates faster than it was designed to do. If you put...
