The nuts for the caliper studs are specified by Tarrett at 54ftlb (caliper bolts are 67ftlb)
The centerlock is 443ftlb
The 10mm bolts holding the brake lines are just hand tightened
The seat bolts are 37ftlb, which I used from prior gen Porsches. The seat bolts are the exact same, and so is the bolt pattern

Yeah, it's definitely less than expected. I actually sent a pic to the brembo engineer as well and he told me the rotors were pretty much done. Cracks just starting to reach the edge and very wide in the middle.

The cantrell bar is 1.75", so we ordered some rings from mcmaster-carr for $25 a piece. The problem was they didn't fit quite right because with the powercoat, the bar diameter came out to 1.774". My buddy did some research and found www.ss-machining.com
They make these rings custom sized to your specs for only $9.50 each instead. You can email them at raceparts@frontiernet.net

I can say that when I made an adjustment with the swaybars that there is just a touch of preload/bind, but not much at all. This was done with the car fully loaded down. I'm not sure how much adjustable endlinks will be of benefit. If the endlinks were a weak link that were prone to break maybe it would be an upgrade, but I'm hoping Porsche did a good job with that.
