Post by WWEVORS »

i have had mine for 30k of auto x's and touge runs

if you upgrade i suggest Hawk or project Mu or endless street pads

whatever you get you probably want ceramic pads

:lol: @ "touge runs". OK Mr. JDM.

If you are just street driving you are probably fine with stock pads. If you want something a little better but still a street pad try the Carbotech Bobcats. No reason to buy anything more expensive than those unless you are tracking the car.

I just find it amusing that you call the dragon a touge like it's some sort of competition ground. Maybe Tsuchiya's 86 will just come out of nowhere and you can have a touge battle with Initial D rules?

Solo2/autox are the same thing :)
