Default Porterfield R4 / MOTUL 600 **EXPO** deal

OK, I can get Porterfield R4's race pads cheap. And If I get them shipped to me and bring them to the Expo, I can get them even cheaper than cheap.

How does $130 front and ~$100 rear sound?? (can't remember exactly on the rear's)



I can also get cases of Motul for ~$85.00 Each. (12 bottles to a case)

I plan on ordering on July 1st, so I would need payment before then. I'll bring everything to the Expo, I'll be arriving at ~5pm on friday. Or I can ship to you ahead of time for a little more $$.

I can do the paypal thing. Or a personal check mailed to me. Prepayment is required.

Email me at jeff652@deragracer.com if you want to order/have questions.

Thanks, and ON WITH THE EXPO!!!

It's nice to know when you're getting a DEAL!

These brakes are one of the BEST track-type performance mods you can make for this type of $

Those are good prices. Motul doesn't come in those bottles anymore, they come in grey bottles, but I don't think anything has changed with the fluid itself.

You'll need 2-3 bottles for a flush.

Jeff:
can you get the OEM Brembo rotors also? Kelly wants to upgrade his brakes for the Expo, but would like to be able to buy all parts from one place. If not, it's not big deal.

yoshi - who relays msgs, since K-b0t can't get on the board from work

Jeff, can you get the R4S pads? The R4 will torn up my rotors. What's the difference between the Motul 600 and 500?

yes, but the discount is not as deep. I get a break on the rotor itself, but the labor costs are flat. $45 to cryo, $45 to slot . . . . About 160 each rotor, but worth it, IMHO

Yes on the R4S pads. much less also, I believe around 80-90 for the fronts.

Jeff

Yes, I like to get some R4S pads as well. Can someone give me that part number for the speedbleeder valve for the ITR? I have a 2000 ITR and how many of those valves do I need? Just for one corner? Where should I buy it?

TRP:
I saw some speedbleeders at Pep Boys, and you'll need one for each corner.

You guys might want to consider the R4 race pads for the track (esp. w/race rubber).
Just be sparing with them on the street, big improvement over the R4S in instant grip.
Might have to wash/wax things more often, though!

I was wondering w/ them as well...the r4s is most likely a better choice for those that don't go to the track that often though, correct?

Probably OK to do, but why not let the back end help brake better too!

I'm highly interested in some R4S pads as well...and like yoshi, am curious if the fronts will be sufficent for occasional track time and regular autocross (track maybe once every month or two, wish it could be more)

Yoshi, just the front would be enough for the track. if you were to get pads for the back i'd probably get the R4S or change to slotted rear rotors. Too much rear brake would definitely upset the braking of your R.
Just want to say that if you guys are going to be on the track for 20+ minute session, then the R4 is definitely the front pads to get. Not the R4S.
Some people believe the the R4 kills the rotors greatly, but from my personal experience, it's not that bad at all and i daily drive my R with the R4. Remember the amount of rotor damage also comes from the way that the driver applies the brakes.
