I got mine installed before my first track say in October (wish it was earlier but engine builds tend to do that....). Loved how everything felt. No issues at all and had a ton of confidence in the brake system. I did some hard braking on the street while bedding the pads before the sleeves and...

Jeebuz! Scary as fuck.

Not today, but yesterday took it to the track. G-Loc R8 plus RBF600 is a wonderful thing.

PCV plate out. Now to mock things up and get the vented OCC in.

Mine at 185k km... EGR delete and OCC added around 140k km. Bought the car used. They are much shinier now though after getting the valves lapped. One pick shows before and after of the runners.

So close...
