DIY TB, ROTARS, PADS and some other stuff. :)

So I woke up this morning, and decided to change out my rotars since they only had about 1 mile left on them! Stopped by to pick up Shardul. Did a drive by past Brookes office, and off to the shop. Luckily, my uncle never minds us using his shop for my little DIY projects. Next week! DIY REAR MAIN SEAL.. any tips?

Today, we installed:
1. Two front rotars,
2. Pads,
3. Royal Purple oil change,
4. Custom Exotic-Metal Throttle Body,
5. two front tires,
6. and the 185 Pulley is still in the trunk! haha
























I'm the guy on the left, Then Shardul, and my Cousin Amir on the right.



Final Product!

Nice work guys. I have to miss the Urban Speed meet again. My brother's running the SCCA race down at MSR Houston. If you get bored you guys should roll out there after the urban speed meet. Shardul, were you going to talk to the urban speed guys about an F1 watch party tomorrow?

Rotors cost 100 bucks a pop and pads were 207. All items were purchased from the dealer. Pads seemed slightly expensive.

I took the coating off with paint stripper and then sparyed the hubs with heat resistant paint for a better look. The stock rims hide a lot of the hub but I have 19" AMG E63 rims that show a lot of the hub.

Great job by Houstonians again!
