Accord Problems, thanks! I don't remember you from long ago, but appreciate the feedback!
CPMike, always a pleasure! Love it when folks visit and give me some inspiration. It's been lacking lately due to COVID + money + stupid Audi taking too much $$$.
But..... as of Feb 1st I've been at the new job for 1 year & got promoted to Senior IT Administrator with a pay bump. So hopefully Sally will get some attention now,. Let's face it, it's all about the $$$ at this level haha.....
And as of yesterday I signed the offer letter for another new job, which is more important than this one & for even more $. So if I get it that will be amazing amazing news!
In regards to the calipers...... let's keep in mind if I paint them, the rears need to be painted tooMy initial thought was yes, paint them Arcadian Green to match the car as I really loved having the lips and skirts painted green to match the car. But I dunno...... Not sure yet. Will have to look at some photos. Someone said paint them black.... naa. & they wont' be banana yellow either, or red. Just too flashy for my liking...... i dunno. Maybe some photoshop is required..

Polish and clearcoat the letters and paint the rest of the caliper black.

Sigh. No idea how people run skylines and more expensive cars with $5000 brake jobs. Wish I had more $$$ for Sally.

No-one has the hubs....... no-one. Been looking for days. FFC gave me a quote for everything I need which came to $845 USD + tax + shipping. That comes to $1136.10 CDN.... + tax + shipping + duty fees.... ug. This price seems crazy for two rotors, hubs and some brackets.

Just wanna say John I can’t wait to see the finished product as I’m sure you’ll make them look super clean plus you’ll stop quicker as well! Thanks for the shout out
Steve
does rockauto have the cl hubs you’re lookin for?

Well.... does anyone have any 97-98 Acura CL 4-cyl front hubs they want to get rid of?
Turns out FFC does have them but that will run me $600+ to get them. Which I think is crazy. But looking for the past couple of days and these things are non existent now. They say that's all that is needed and they slide right into our bearings...

First big shout out to djALBINI for selling me these!Saved me from buying them on ebay, etc. and maybe getting a bad set. These are mint! Thanks djALBINI!!
Well..... you always have those "projects" that either you don't have the time for or don't have the money. This is another one that I've been waiting a LONG time to do!! Like 10+ years...
Now who remembers the details on how to keep your 4 lugI'd really like to avoid having to buy new wheels.
FFC ...caliper brackets
Rotors ??? 350Z re-drilled.. (i hope not)
I think if I change to 5 lug that requires a whole knew knuckle etc...
