Hello,
My name is Patrick and I am from Florida. I spend as much time on the track as possible.

I have a SR swapped 240. Here is video from Sebring. I wasn't pushing the car too hard, as the brakes would fade after 4-5 laps.

thanks everyone!

Yea, brakes are my achillies heel right now. The problem the car is having isn't at the caliper/rotor, it's the exhaust manifold and exhaust side of the turbo are about 10 inches (254mm

) from the master cylinder. After a few laps this past weekend, I put the temp gun on the exh mani and it was 730 deg F (388 deg C

) so I am in the process of building a box around the master cylinder and then running a cool air duct to it.

low_civic In my younger years, I spent my summers in Kingston on the Saint Lawrence Seaway. My parents have a summer house on one of the islands. I love Montreal. My wife and I are trying to get up there during the GP of Canada.
