      Did brakes today, new pads and rotors, PO never did anything to them, so they were too grooved to machine.

      BTW - the wires that go to the brake light were busted, so i have to get new ones, i guess from the stealership.

      The guys worked great, it took them less than 2 hours, and the car practically stands on the front bumper when i slam on the brakes.

      Well spent money. :p

        In a hurry to glaze your pads, eh? Its a good plan to avoid slamming on your brakes to let the pads seat into the rotor.

                Installed a new AFM today and gave it a ferrari tune-up. Ran weird for a while, but i turned it off and cranked it up again and it ran MUCH better... hope it stays that way.

                              You are full of shit. The turn signal circut could not handle the amps that the bulbs draw. unless you put low wattage bulbs in there.

                                I changed my RCA cables today (Stinger "Dream" series) and added a sub level controller, changed the bulb in the 3rd brakelight...which failed due to big boom and window slapping the housing. Moved it 1/4" further away from the window, too.

                                Cleaned up the alarm wiring a bit, too.
