if jz change brake pad... ur new brake pad needs run-in first... means it needs to brush away the top surface level which does not bite well... after that ur brake pad will perform..

another possibility is air bubble in brake lines... when u change brake pad, got bleed ur brake lines as well??....
2 inch exhaust will be too big... 1.7" will be nice... if 1.6/1.8 engine, get 1.8" piping....

yep, that's what my exhaust mech recommended too, 1.7" for 4G15 (stock)
anyway, i'm using "modified" open pod air intake tongue.gif

how modified is ur air intake??

drilled holes in stock airbox sweat.gif
but it works, albeit the extra sound if sudden press of the accelerator.

Last time i did the same thing to my suzuki rg sport also! At last, juz remove the whole air filter system n air box, make it as a direct intake aka 1 throttle! Hehehe~
*
eh u mean u totally removed filter too? like this, dust/insects will enter ur intake system? (anyway, dont mention Suzuki RG sport, mine got stolen few years back, still feeling sad about it) i drilled holes on the underside and fender side of the airbox, so hope it would reduce hot air intake. but i'm still planning my CAI to help blow in some cool air.

Anyone use dcarbo b4???

Any effect??

was thinking about this too, but i think distilled water itself will work for this.
i still havent confirmed WHICH hose to let the intake sukk water in rclxub.gif so dont dare to do yet


Added on May 11, 2009, 3:55 pmguys, i'm looking for ways to make my engine bay COOLER.
my extractor is current naked, so the heat goes directly into the engine bay (no good). also my air intake box is drilled, so it draws air partially from the engine bay itself. i had been playing with the idea of installing CAI, but right now, i'm thinking i should make the entire engine bay cooler (its good for performance, no?) i'm thinking, if i add some sort of scoop, or fender to deflect air from under the car into the engine bay, is it a good idea? i'm not sure about when it rains though... wat is your thoughts?

use heatshield... want better effect, use inverted vents to divert hot air out from ur engine bay...


is it legal? but still, for now i rather not change fenders/bonnet as it is costly stuff... unless you go tips to do it without changing them?

QUOTE(the_catacombs @ May 11 2009, 05:34 PM)
ur airbox holes drilled at which direction??.. facing the extractor??...
*
it is facing away from the extractor lor, hoping it would reduce the chances of getting hot air direct from engine block and extractor, but still, my entire engine bay is rather hot since my extractor is naked (no heat shield after modify). if i make the conventional CAI hose like most cars, it wont work very well for me, so i'm still thinking about going ahead with making reflectors to reflect/guide air from under the front lips to the engine bay, wat do you all think ah?
