Thought i'd poke my nose in here haha. The gearbox oil (and diff oil for that matter) were replaced with MT-90 at the 50k service, as I wanted some decent fluid in there if I was gonna be taking her on the track. As for that noise, that doesnt sound good...

Love the red on the SE!

If you don't mind me asking, and if you remember :mrgreen: , how much was the shipping charge for the track dog splitter? Or did you get it local?

Cheers Pete. Yeah that noise was bugging me. I haven't heard it since but will have to keep en ear out for it at the next track day. And I still need to sort out that front end shudder with the brakes... lazy atm

Bought from Track Dog Racing for $99 plus $73 shipping which also included a set of rear HP+ brake pads. Came rolled in a large box that had seen better days but no damage to the products inside.

Was able to throw the car around a few quiet corners tonight. Has more grip than I care to find out about on public roads. I kept driving around this particular block and I even built up my own supporters. Sadly I had to call it a night before my supporters got too rowdy.

Can't wait to see what they can do on the track. :) So far I'm very impressed but I expected nothing less after reading some reviews online. Will give my feedback after some time spent with them.

Pete mentioned some scrubbing issues with 215's on the front. I have noticed it on full lock right but not left. Had a look at home and saw the brake line touching. Nothing to worry about.

George,

How's the road noise with them?

Also is the ride firmer?

Will let you know once I drive a bit more. So far the ride seems much like it was with the RE001's which were probably louder imo.
