"good pads" depends on intended use. for general pottering around stock is fine bendix ultimates, for a bit more enthusiastic driving. ferodos if you want a bit more. the old ts2000/formula was a great road/sometimes track pad but need a bit of heat in them. never got consistent results from ebc. match your new pads with some good fluid and you should be good 😄 bigger rotors etc. may improve stopping power but usually all they do is increase your unsprung weight 😄

on those wheels it's a car crime ! stancenation 😂

the wobble for extra fail 😂

there are plenty of cheaper after market options 😄 no cheap way to do the intake carbon clean though.

double barrelled fail; 1. seat covers for a porsche is verboten, 2. car is photos is definitely not a macan or anything from stuttgart. 😝 https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/interior/seat-covers/listing-2502488293.htm

not so, established manufacturers like sachs, bilstein, ohlins et al know the modern difference between track day and race day. 😉 10/14 is hardcore, stock legacy is something like 3.7/5.4 for cmparison stock sti v6 4.3/3.5 stock v10 sti 4.7/4.4

awesome. didn't know there was a golf course out there ! 😄

this show is getting busier every year. if you want to put on a group display get there really early ! otherwise best park outside the showgrounds.

not a fan of the 5th, i thought it was blah after the 4th. honda ftw

is that a 2nd gen or 3rd gen prelude ? both were great cars with the 2.0 dohc motor. ultimate prelude was the 4th with 2.2 vtec. i had a nz new vti-r and it was a fantastic touring car, quick and relaxing to drive.

mazda mx5 scruffy but only $2k https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/mazda/auction-2378982178.htm

colour coded so you know which pedal is which ? 😂

if you like great engineering, checkout the latest Harry's Garage video on youtube and feast your eyes on a billet crank for a lambo v12. 😍

if you're doing 1000km/week you are not going to want some eco sh it box 🤣 what's your budget ? how about an old shape suzuki swift sport ? 1.6 NA, 6 speed manual, cheap to maintain and run. but most importantly they are fun to drive - funner than the latest turbo version. or a small diesel; golf corolla etc. bmw 320d if you can find a decent one
