ok so I got the rear Brembo installed last nite after getting the front, and AK gave me a test ride (while there are lots of beer cans on the desk)... I went wtf, never know my car can actually go this fast. I have been way to gentle with it.
ET, I am glad that you had survived from the test drive. Please next time don't let AK drive when you see him drink.

Some owner told you their vehicle not faster enough and I felt the root of caused by driver not vehicle
100% agree. AK did some sliding at the corner near by Ferrari garage with one of the two lanes blocked for construction, I was like "diu nei lo mei ng lun hai ar"....

so most ppl saying their car is not fast enough probably need to give more confidence in their cars.

Our cars handles better,
but new cars are getting faster and faster these days.
A normal audi 2.0T will beat us/on par with us in straight line.
yeah with T in the engine we have no chance.
maybe it time to add SC

Maybe pulley first

AK took my pulley out less then 30mins, and that makes me think of upgrading.
Who wanna join me?
