I found the best solution......>> Was to run a street pad and a track pad. They dont take that long to change and will make sure you get the most out of your track day without causing problems in day to day traffic.
Heat question... I too used to run different pads at the track and then change them for everyday street use.The stone guards - I know are illegal to remove for street applications, but they do have small vents in them. Do these small vents provide enough ventilation, or would it be better to get rid of the entire heat shield for more heat to escape?Also, sadly, nobody has answered my numbering on the calipers question
get rid of them I removed the stane guards as per WYKKED's advice and there is a definate improvement. Another option is to rig up some brake ducts, I have a spare set if you want as they dont fit my stoptecs, they only fit factory Z32 calipers.
My callipers Just washing the zed and saw that my callipers had Sumitomo and number 6 on them.Dont know what it means but
If these calipers are cast >>> it most probably means they use a multi-cavity tool to produce, say, 8 calipers at once. Each cavity would be numbered so that if quality issues developed they would be able to identify which cavity was the problem.Another possibility is that minor mods have been done over time, with a new number being added after each tool repair. Once again this is useful in identifying production issues.I'm only guessing here - NOT stating fact.
