Part#’s
99135252180 and 99135252280
Hand brake plates look brand new. They maybe the new parts for all I can see.
Maybe because I never used the hand brake ??

And of course it never hurts to have your VBOX come on at 30 MPH automatically and start recording
3 test drives by 2 different mechanics. Very easy on the car, no cold revs and didn't even go over the speed limit. Nice to know ;-)

Great info! Had a good laugh at your VBox logging the test drive.

When you say 6000 miles for spark plug replacement if tracked, is that 6000 track miles?

^^ No, that’s what I have roughly done twice now and it clearly isn’t enough.
I will do it at least every 6000 miles or 4000 miles, in my case that means about half that are track miles.

As always, thanks for the great information. I read and re-read your posts to plan out my maintenance.

Thanks, very useful information. I know it's apples to oranges since you have another 1000 rpm redline on my GT4, but it's good to get a baseline for when to replace things.
BTW, you have 12000 track miles? Nice work!

2 sessions at Daytona and 1 session Sebring.
2 pucks already cracking on the new warranty caliper.

Just unacceptable. I know that the supplier is likely covering the replacement part, but it just seems to be an inferior design.
