Lube any surface that slides against the caliper as well as the face of the piston(s). On a monoblock, that includes the holes that the pins slide into and any locating ears. Preventative for seizing and/or noise.

It definitely looks pretty good. VS-5 are pretty perfect for this car.

I'd consider running a 19x10 to get a mild stretch (with the same rubber) to improve the turn-in feel. Less drawbacks than higher pressure IMO. 40 hot is higher than most folks run during track days, kinda sounds like you're compensating for the tire rolling over because your tire is on the...

What width wheels?

That 10mm (and lack of a digital tire pressure gauge) will spin you right out! I am giving up significantly more by going to 600TW all-seasons than by dropping from 265 to 255. And it's not a complete L anyway. Fun fact: the contact patch (in square inches) of a 265 width tire and a 255 width...

Yep. If you're not experiencing second gear grinds, I can heartily recommend Red Line MTL. It's been really good.

Answers to inevitable questions: Apex offers the 18x9.5 in +58 and +38, why +45? I originally wanted to do +58 to maintain the OEM offset. However, after running a +44 setup all winter long and not really getting any torque steer, I decided +45 was the sweet spot. I am too old to think +38...

Nice work! I miss those days. You might want to check out @ashmostro 's thread on his DSP integration project if you haven't already.

Most people downshift significantly slower than they upshift. It's me, I'm most people. 😁

I don't think the CDV has anything to do with second gear grinds. It's a one-way check valve and it doesn't significantly impact your ability to push the clutch in, it just changes the speed the pedal moves when you let the clutch out. Second gear grinds caused by the clutch not being fully...

If you don't care about your speedometer being dead on, for winter maybe consider a taller tire with a wheel fitment that isn't aggressive. You'll gain back some of your ground clearance lost to the springs. Also, there are some spring options out there that do a more modest drop. If you...

Gonna need three pedals if it's going to stand a chance. Something tells me Nissan doesn't have it in them.

Be careful admitting that around here, or some cringelord with a degree from a Facebook group will show up and claim that Homelink of all things is somehow gonna draw too much power for an 18GA wire to handle. 😁 Glad you got it sorted.

False. The harness that runs through the stem is the same, and the plug inside the mirror clamshell is the same. This is why you can use the stem/mirror harness harvested from an Integra in a Homelink mirror from an Accord. The reason that the Homelink module has a separate power wire is not...

Sent.

My video addresses these things directly. I can send it to you if you like.

Okay let's diagnose this point by point: "properly ground the mirror" - the mirror is already properly grounded. If it weren't, it wouldn't power on. This isn't household wiring - cars don't have separate return paths. "ensure all power connections and thresholds are correct" - the yellow...

08V03-3A0-100 (your first link) is the correct mirror to get if you want a frameless one. Commonly referred to as the "Accord mirror". 08V03-30A-100 (your second link) is a harness that you can use to run power to the Accord mirror through your A pillar. Using that harness, IMO, is not the...

Really cheap set of McGard lug nuts. https://www.ebay.com/itm/267375501910 They're actually OEM Lexus, so the locks have a tiny "F" logo lasered onto them.

Maybe even a better/cheaper option, if the factory amp has a flat mounting surface, would be a laser-cut plate with holes that match the factory ones and that match your enclosure's mounting tabs. SendCutSend could even make a quantity of them for you with reasonable pricing. ETA: haha you...
