TDavis' Platinum Warrior build

[TDavis]

The blue hoses DO look cool, but I wanted the 'don't have to remove it when going back to the stealership for warranty work' stealth look, so I opted for the black ones on my Damond.

Yeah luckily I know people

The only flashy things in my engine bay will be these hoses, a blue ST inlay for the engine cover(that red ST is a fucking eye sore for me now), and the ITG intake whenever I go big turbo. Other then that if I get boost/rad hoses they'll be black but thats only because no one offers silicone hoses in the shade of blue I want lol

Restored the SVT rear caliper brackets to their formal glory after an acid bath and polishing. Also painted the rotors as the factory Ford ones do not come with a black rotor hat.

Took about 10min per side for the swap yesterday. The picture that I took of the stock rotor and SVT rotor in relation to the OEM dust shield really show how much bigger the rotor actually is. Rotor sizes is hard to capture on camera unless its put up next to something for size comparison.

Such a clean and well put together build. Subbed!

Stoptech BBK arrived safe and sound!

Yeah I'm trying to admire it as much as possible because I know the entirety of it won't be this clean. I'm debating on being my OCD self and waxing them before installation

Nice man - You're going to love the brakes. The difference in pedal feel is tremendous. Congrats!

Put a coat or two of one of those high tech paint protectants, or sealants on them.

And the verdict is.......no spacers required!!!

Outstanding news! And you have a ton of clearance too.

 

[sidewaysallday]

Wow tons of clearence! I might have to look into a new set of rims for next summer

Yeah I wouldn't mind having 2mm of clearance like most, I could live with that. But its also a nice piece of mind having plenty of clearance.

Any track days coming up to test those guys out? I've had great results using PFC z-rated pads on the street and swapping them out at the track for PFC-08 race pads. I just had to replace the rotor rings on my set for the first time (nice sized crack at the edge of them) and still have about 1/3 of the pad material left on my first set of 08s which is staggering.

There is actually a tracknight at Topeka on the 20th that I will try to make it to.

Did you have any trouble getting the jet nuts off without the stud that screws into the bracket coming off with the nut? I shouldn't have to worry about it for a while since its new but just curious.

Nope - I've not had an issue with the stud & jet nuts so far. I've only taken the caliper off a hand full of times so take that with a grain of salt.

Those wheels are discontinued right? I'll have to jump on the next set that goes up for sale.
