Default Cobalt Friction Brake Discounts

HTCFT10 <-This is the coupon code to get 10% from Honda-Tech.

CBFWEB04 <-This is the promotional code to get $20 off any order over $100. This is temporary, about two weeks more, I think.

EDIT: One of the codes was typed wrong.

I believe it ends Jan 31st 2005. Which is great as I will not have any more money until after the holidays

I've ordered a few things from them recently.

I wish we ordered more than we do, as a team.

Although they got their start by paying attention to Honda-Tech and us, they have gone on to make most of their money off of more professional efforts like ALMS, World Challenge, Grand Am, and many others, and apparently American Iron buys more from them now than Honda Challenge does!

I'm glad they're such a success. Let's just hope they remember their roots.

heavy autos = more pad useage.

I noticed that they're now making and recommending more than the GT-Sports for the rear of the ITR.

Heh, I ordered 2 sets of pads + 4 cans of ATE Gold for about $300, and then a week later my $20 off coupon came!

Don't need anything anytime soon, unfortunately.

That's what they tried pawning on me, to get the brake balance right with the Spec VRs.. I decided to stick with the XP8's in back.

I may have to order some brakes. I do need spares. Plus, I LOVE the Spec VR! They squeak to me every morning on the way to work, just to say "hello!"

I have GT Sports on the rear of my ITR right now...but I have to be careful w/the alignment.

Braking from around 140 makes the rear wheels go " left-&gt;<FONT COLOR="red"> \ / </FONT> &lt;-right" and drastically reduces rear patch and control.

FORTUNATELY I forgot to buy brake fluid.

This place:
http://cyclemall.net/
Has RBF 600 Racing D.O.T. 4 1/2 Liter on sale for <U>$7.95.</U>

Their website sucks ***, they were referred by Yahoo! Shopping so I'm assuming they're legit.

Well, I do!

I'm hoping the new springs with preload will help that a bit, George. Cheers.

VR's Front, GT's Rear on the R.

GT's all around on the EP

Never had a complaint with that setup on either car!

Good.... XP8 front/rear for me feels great. I may go XP9 rear (carbotech, not cobalt : Puts on nomex: )

<u>Some</u> of it's in the alignment.

Some of it's in the suspension (14K or more on front).

A lot of it's in the driver.
