Do you have a part-out thread anywhere? I'd be curious to click through it.

Not much left anymore if you were looking for items.
If you were curious about pictures I have some I could upload. Maybe I'll make a little partout thread with some pictures.

Do I need to post what Ferrari engineers were quoted saying regarding why they use drilled/slotted rotors on their street cars?

Nope. Don't really care. Been running a combo of drilled/slotted or slotted rotors for more than 10 years on various Hondas. I think I'll trust my own personal real world experience on my own cars.

It's the equivalent of a bumblebee. By all laws of physics it's not supposed to be able to fly and yet it does.

I think Ferrari even said they drill the rotors for looks mainly. But drilled rotors do cool better and removed the gasses away from the pads surface.

Yeah me either. If they did I would've bitched them out.. But it was quite annoying to have to take it back and it was my only car, so yeah. Out of transportation while it was getting fixed again.

Drove the daily 94 hatch to work and home, as usual...
Fired up the turbo SOHC F22B hatch for the first time.
Still alot of work to do, no coolant leaks, no fuel leaks and boost leaks are minimal.
