I LEARNED'D something today!

[TurboSauce]

Got to install some new stuff to my G35 this month.



The new BMC and larger booster



The old BMC and Booster -


The finished product? -

[TurboSauce]

So, I installed the brak lines a little too high and ended up making contact with the wheels.
New lines are now tucked under the rotor .

Learn once kinda ordeal

[float_6969]

Oops! Glad nothing bad happened!

[PapaSmurf2k3]

Hope you caught it before they wore through and leaked!

[TurboSauce]

Nope!

True story: I made it to the office and as I was backing into my spot, the pedal got spongy and I smelled brake fluid.

Thankfully it waited until after I drove 35 miles on the highway.

Are you degenerates still keeping this thread alive?

[float_6969]

We're doing our best!

[TurboSauce]

Trying!

Also more updates, the ABS module now failed, so now I have no ABS. I'm also running no VDC, or trac. due to disabling the yaw sensor after installing my 2 way lsd.

I now drive a '89 240.

It keeps coming back. I think that means we're all regenerates.

Oh s***, you're actually right... never forget about Learned'd #1 (LEARNED'D PRIME)

[float_6969]

The Learned'd deniers say it never really existed. It was just fabricated on a movie set....

Zombie thread must never die. Back to the top lolol.

[float_6969]

Ian really is back! We've got Finndurance updates and shizposting!

Correct on both accounts. Speaking of updates, I should probably start a thread on the B team car, seeing as it'll get run almost strictly as a seat rental program for the next few years.

Should probably buy a new laptop first though. Ever since mine was down wind of the G when the team used an ABC fire extinguisher to put out the brake that was on fire it hasn't been the same. That ABC powder is nasty. 1 out of 10, would not recommend.

Our neighbors at work were doing a fire extinguisher training/demonstration and purged like 30 bottles a few parking spaces away from my corvette.
Someone came in and told me about it. My boss told me to go home for the day and wash it off. We both gave the neighbors a solid tongue lashing.
f***.

f***ers.

Shoulda hit them for a full detail. That stuff is nasty, and turns wicked corrosive when mixed with water.

Heres to NICO for helping me learn how to work on cars.

I hope this website never goes away.

Greg sold it to Microsoft. It's being integrated into Office 2026. Enjoy it while it lasts!
