Diary of a Madman; TitaniumTT's see you @ DGRRXI RE-REbuild

[TitaniumTT]

psssshhhhh, my ass!

Soooooooooooo I didn't get as much done as I wanted to this weekend and it seems that I have a problem with my TCMux..... it's getting 8V, but not sending the req'ed 5V to the hall effect sensors. This concerns me..... sooooo gotta get on the phone with MoTeC tomorrow and try to figure that out, then I'm still waiting on some other parts to show up, I did prep the bumper so I can paint that tomorrow night. Worse comes to worst, I can try overnighting parts from J-pan.......

I've also got a rotor sticker on the 5gal Jerry can on the back of The Mighty XJ, so I'll at least be swiming in Rotary spirit :rolf:

I should be drunk by the time you roll in.

Not this time, this time it's brakes...... and it's not the brake kit. THat's here, and on, both of them, I dug up a brand new stock master in case I can't use the other one I've got because the lines that I ordered haven't gotten here yet..... If it's not one thing it's another. it's pissing me off so much that I almost... ALMOST spent $600 on a hydaulic flaring tool so I can make my own SS hardlines for -3 as opposed to ordering all this crap and waiting, and waiting, and waiting and WAITING!!!!

I'll be in ~ 20:00 - 21:00 on Thursday.... damn man, when are you getting in?

[TitaniumTT]

Meh, I might as well show them off a little bit, seeing as how it's really the only way for people to see them......

Rears.....


Stock rear rotor on top of new rotor.



You can see where the stock caliper sits in relation to the wheel



And here's the kit installed.... I'll get more pics up later... sleepy time... worky tomorrow..... ugh..




I couldn't fit a **** hair between the caliper and the wheel.... it just don't get any bigger than this!

[TitaniumTT]

Fronts....

Again, stock front rotor on top of new rotor.... I said DAYUM



Nope wait.... GAWD DAYAUM!!!!



Yes, that's right, 6-piston cali's..... what.... you;ve never heard of go big or go home? Or that my nickname is Dr. Overkill....





Stock cali mounted.....



And the new setup..... yet again... you just can't get any bigger than that...... I've actually got to run a small spacer with my Work Wheels to clear the caliper. I should've gone with the Narrow Superlights.... but we thought we had the room. Oh well, the front coul've used a little spacing, just a touch, now I have a reason... or I could just go back to the rears.



Now... lets hope all my parts show up tomorrow like they;re supposed too...

Flight lands at 1:30. I should be out there by 4-5 at the very latest.
